Gregory Beson is an American-born designer and sculptor who launched his studio practice in 2018 in New York City, focusing on material culture across furniture, artifacts, and lighting. Working from his New York City atelier, Beson designs new pieces and collections, crafting or prototyping each work by hand for private clients, brands, galleries, and institutions. His work has been shown globally and is represented by galleries in New York City, Genève, Milan, and now through Coup D’Etat.


A New Englander at heart, Beson remains deeply connected to the seas and stones of the Northeast. Music was his first medium before he transitioned to the tangible, shaping objects that reflect care, intention, and a sensitivity to lived experience. He holds an undergraduate degree in product design and a master’s degree in industrial design from Parsons The New School for Design, where he also taught from 2018 to 2023. He currently lives and works in New York City.


Guided by a belief that furniture is not simply an accessory to daily life, but an integral part of our shared experience, Beson seeks to make pieces for those who wish to populate their lives with considered objects — furniture to be lived on, in, and with, and ultimately passed on. With such importance and power, he believes these objects should be crafted with care, tenderness, and deep consideration.
