SHIFTSPACE Design is a Philadelphia-based design studio that integrates architecture and industrial design to address projects at multiple scales, including urban interventions, placemaking, architecture, and furniture. Led by designers Mario Gentile and Tim Barnes, the firm works with brands, institutions, and cities, blending architectural space, public art, and landscapes with product design under its Shift brand. Founded in 2009, the studio operates as a small multidisciplinary team focused on translating spatial concepts into tangible environments and objects. The company positions itself within the design services sector by pursuing collaborations that reconcile functional design with broader cultural and urban considerations. A recent development involves ongoing collaborations and participation in design discussions through partnerships with DesignPhiladelphia and other design organizations. The studio is based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, providing services that span from large-scale public interventions to intimate furniture pieces, reflecting a broad design remit rather than a single specialization.
