About us

David Barsoum and Niky Sampedro of Carefully Picked

Carefully Picked is a curatorial studio founded by David Barsoum and Niky Sampedro.

We source and present vintage furniture, lighting, and objects with a distinct point of view. Our perspective is rooted in postmodern and European design, but not limited by period or movement.

We’re drawn to work with originality, clarity, and lasting presence. Pieces that pushed design forward, challenged convention, and still feel relevant today.

Alongside established names, we focus on designers and pieces that exist outside the traditional canon of collectible design.

Carefully Picked is rooted in the belief that the value of design lies not only in its history, but in the way it continues to shape how we live.
