MPDESIGNSHOP

Manhattan Project Design Shop is a Philadelphia-based lighting and design company founded in NYC in 2011. We design and manufacture a curated selection of industrial and custom lighting fixtures and provide design and interior project management services. Founder and designer, Dennis Murphy, received his Bachelor of Architecture degree from the Cooper Union School of Architecture before working in public-sector design as a liaison at the New York City Department of Design and Construction. Our first lighting designs were the result of necessity, illuminating a north Brooklyn apartment that didn't have a single light socket. We follow Andy Warhol's maxim "making money is art, and working is art, and good business is the best art."
