For NYCxDesign Week 2025, Brooklyn-based artwork collective MSCHF has partnered with Mercedes-AMG to debut a provocative furnishings assortment that reimagines efficiency automobile components as experimental design objects. The collaborative exhibition, titled MSCHF x AMG: Not for Automotive Use, will run Might 14–17 inside MSCHF’s Brooklyn studio — the primary time the group has opened its doorways to the general public.
The sculptural assortment transforms AMG elements into irreverent objects like ergonomic chairs, standing lights and even trash bins. Each bit is a conceptual exploration within the spirit of Sixties Italy’s Radical Design motion, referencing Achille Castiglioni’s playful repurposing of commercial supplies. Constructed from real AMG components and produced on a made-to-order foundation, the works mix exact engineering with MSCHF’s disruptive artistic ethos.
Attire and equipment may also be on show, that includes scans of AMG engine elements and a tongue-in-cheek perfume tree formed like an apple tree — a nod to AMG’s German hometown of Affalterbach. The studio is open to the general public Might 15–17 from 12–5 p.m., with a gap social gathering on Might 14 from 7–11 p.m. Restricted-edition objects will probably be accessible for a short while solely.
