Brock Galerie

Brock Galerie owners Cameron Smith (with his dog, Jackson), left, and Tom Kurthy mix major 20th century European designs with brawny industrial pieces. “We like to find things in a weathered state and not mess with it,” Smith says. “Leaving something in its original condition is the best tribute to its beauty.” Here they're perched on a table ($6,200) from an old wool factory. The Vico Magistretti lamp from 1964 ($3,200) is next to an old book press ($325). Kurthy sits on a red leather Arne Jacobsen Seagull chair ($3,200).
