Gabriel Hendifar Collection

Gabriel Hendifar, artistic director and CEO of the New York-based lighting and furniture design studio is emerging on the international design scene. In 2019 his former partner in life and work, Jeremy Anderson joined him. After the couple separated in late 2020, Gabriel created Apparatus to focus on his active and thriving ceramic art practice. Since then, Hendifar has taken the reins of the company. Each object, explains Hendifar, is part of his Iranian family history, mainly his grandmother. His parents, who fled Iran in 1979 and settled in Los Angeles in the early 1980s, were both musicians. When he was a child, he loved watching his father play the Persian drum while his mother sang and played the piano. He inherited this sense of spectacle.
