Lualdi opens on Madison Avenue
ualdi opens its new showroom at 180 Madison Avenue, in the heart of New York’s “Made in Italy” design district. Fully renovated and expanded, the approximately 200-square-metre space is a hub dedicated to design culture, where architecture, materials and technology interact in an immersive experience.
“Another door opens with Lualdi’s new showroom on Madison Avenue in New York. In doing so, Lualdi creates virtual connections – doors that, when opened, connect Milan and New York,” states Piero Lissoni.
The New York showroom is conceived as an experiential and conversational space, with direct street frontage that echoes the successful Milan model, showcasing the brand’s vision through furnished settings and ongoing dialogue with architects, designers and industry stakeholders.
This new opening reinforces Lualdi’s long-standing presence in the United States, dating back to the 1990s and consolidated by business units in Miami, New York and Los Angeles, as well as collaborations with some of the foremost architecture and interior design firms. The new showroom is part of a global strategy to create mono-brand spaces that authentically reflect the company’s design philosophy.
Lualdi is an international benchmark in the field of design doors, spanning everything from traditional hinged models to sliding and pivot systems. It combines technological innovation, aesthetic research and quality craftsmanship, transforming the door into a genuine architectural element. The brand interprets and redefines the concept of the integrated threshold, reaffirming its role as a design partner offering expertise and solutions that address the evolving scenarios of contemporary living.
The strong demand for bespoke solutions, especially in Manhattan, has prompted Lualdi to expand its offering to include options geared towards fixed furnishings. The highest expression of this new strategy is the new Framework panelling system, designed by Piero Lissoni, which will officially be added to the catalogue in 2026. Framework is a modular system that integrates multiple functions – from storage to lighting – and meets the increasingly hybrid demands of residential, contract and hospitality settings. Featuring customisable layouts and an extensive range of materials, Framework is designed as a versatile tool for a market striving for continuity between architecture and interior design.
The opening of the New York flagship reflects the transformation of the international market and embraces integrated solutions in fixed furnishings and custom design.
In recent years, architects, interior designers and investors have shifted their focus from standalone products to systems that define entire spaces. In New York especially – where the highest level of customisation is expected and projects require a highly tailored approach – Lualdi has moved beyond its traditional role as a door manufacturer to act as a partner in shaping complex spaces.
Alberto Lualdi, Chairman of Lualdi, explains: “Lualdi’s presence in the United States dates back to the 1990s, with business units opened in Miami and New York in the early 2000s and in Los Angeles in 2022. For us, the US market represents a proving ground of innovation and experimentation, where we have built a strong network of architects, interior designers and investors, developing tailored solutions for residential and contract projects alike. The opening of the approximately 200-square-metre showroom on Madison Avenue crowns over two decades of work and underpins our internationalisation strategy: a mono-brand venue designed for meetings with designers and stakeholders, complete with a dedicated and ongoing local project management service.”
