    Sharing the Spotlight: Lindsey Adelman and Gabriel Hendifar
    May 20 2026
    Designers Lindsey Adelman and Gabriel Hendifar may technically be competitors, but in many ways they’re kindred spirits. Adelman has revolutionized the world of lighting for the past 20 years, introducing a level of craft and artistry into an industry that was sorely lacking; and Hendifar created the brand Apparatus, an outfit known for its own lighting designs (among other objects) that positively glow with glamor and creativity. On this episode, the two impresarios sit down at the same table for a rare discussion on what being a designer means to them, how the careers of one another inspire them, and much more.
