ABOUT US

Brighton Studios is an interdisciplinary studio focused on creating window displays, scenery, and creative visual merchandising for luxury brands, boutiques, museums, and exhibitions. We are based in Staten Island, New York, a short ferry ride or drive from the heart of Manhattan.

Our work has reached far and wide! We have produced creative displays for showing in Sydney, London, Doha, The Louvre Museum in Paris, Waikiki, Beverly Hills, Miami, and many locations throughout New York City. That's 4 continents, and we're aiming for all 7 - if only those penguins from Antarctica would reach out! 🐧

We have a passion for quality, and are dedicated to creating work that is not only visually striking but also functional and durable.

Before starting Brighton Studios in 2018, Aaron worked as a freelance theatrical designer and fabricator based in Staten Island. He designed and built scenery for theatres in NY and NJ, and assisted designers for opera productions across the US and internationally. Notably, he worked at New York Theatre Workshop fabricating and installing high end scenery for hit off-broadway shows Lazarus, and Hadestown.

Aaron grew up in a family of builders and designers, learning valuable lessons in craftsmanship and problem solving from a young age. Some of his earliest memories are of helping his father on construction projects around NYC.
