THE EIGHTH, A NEW AVANT-GARDE ROOM OPENS IN CHELSEA

A cocktail-driven restaurant rooted in atmosphere, ritual, and emotional resonance, a brainchild of award-winning New York interior designers Julien Legeard and Valmira Gashi of Legeard Studio, and in collaboration with hospitality leader Richie Romero…

 

Behind heavy curtains on Seventh Avenue, a niche atmosphere opened during Fashion Week THE EIGHTH, offering a space for New York’s nightlife elite: journalists, artists, agents, and entrepreneurs meeting for conversation, point of view, and aesthetic exchange.

The environment feels like a modern salon where spectacle is not expected, and where presence is measured in quiet observation rather than in volume or performance.

The bar is the heart of the space, where socialites and writers enjoy smoked mezcal cocktails in a muted ambiance designed by Julien Legeard and Valmira Gashi.

Located in Chelsea, The EIGHTH NYC positions itself not simply as a nightlife address, but as an écrin, a curated enclave in a city that too often confuses spectacle with influence, for those who prefer atmosphere over ostentation.
