Partners & Spade, established in 2008 by Andy Spade and Anthony Sperduti, is a storefront and studio on Great Jones Street in the NoHo neighborhood of lower Manhattan. The studio produces films, books, apparel and conceptual products as well as marketing and branding projects for select coporate clients. The storefront, open on the weekends to the public, presents a constantly re-imagined group show of artwork, objects, collections and ideas generated by an ever changing cast of collaborators.

Begun as a means for its founders to pursue varied creative interests, Partners & Spade draws on Spade and Sperduti’s collective experience in advertising, filmmaking and fashion to create compelling brand strategies, products and one-of-a-kind artifacts, as well as a unique space for art happenings and special gatherings.

From the New York Post:

We hear...That Alabama Chanin, the Standard East Village, Partners & Spade and Billy Reid teamed on “Makeshift” — a New York fashion and design panel series that wraps tomorrow with a “chair workshop” — to run alongside Design Week.
