Manuela features a dining room table designed by Rashid Johnson and paintings by George Condo, Jenny Holzer, and more.
It’s hard for anything to feel tucked away on Prince Street, one of the main arteries running through the beating heart of New York’s SoHo neighborhood. And maybe “tucked away” isn’t quite the right descriptor. But on a cold November night, I walked right past Manuela even though I was intentionally looking for it, my eyes failing to spot the small wooden yellow sign hanging outside the storefront. But once you enter, the reserved exterior makes sense. See, Manuela is filled with art.
They chose SoHo for its artistic roots: a few blocks away is Donald Judd’s studio on Spring Street, and once on the same intersection sat FOOD, the legendary artist-run restaurant by artists Carol Goodden, Tina Girouard, and Gordon Matta-Clark in the 1970s. “It is known for its artistic history and heritage and that's very exciting to us,” says Artfarm creative director Bee Emmott. When it came to the design, they wanted art to shine in a prominent yet unpretentious way.
