		Close window Sofield's fascination with home interiors extends back to one of his first influences-his Japanese-style childhood home-and encompasses his entire career. Early on, Sofield worked for Ralph Lauren, where he was assigned to reinterpret the designer's home collection for each season. In 1992, he co-founded Aero Studios in New York, the much-admired design studio and store offering an array of custom furnishings and design services, along with selected home and office accessories created by artisans.



		Close window William Sofield is considered one of the most thoughtful talents of his generation. A rigorous Modernist, Sofield believes in the credo that design must live as well as it looks. His work is defined not by a particular style, but by a holistic approach to design that addresses the requirements of living and where luxury emanates from fidelity to craft. Materials and architectural details take their cue from the context of the project at hand with careful consideration for function and a client's individual personality and needs. His furniture and product design is imbued with a sophisticated respect for materiality and a concern for how a design should improve with use and age to become an object of legacy. Mr. Sofield has been described by Interior Design magazine as a 'choreographer' of spaces.
