Basic.Space launches the Luxury Draw

(Los Angeles, CA — October 7, 2026) — Basic.Space, the curated IRL-to-URL shopping destination, announces The Luxury Draw, exclusively available via Apple Pay.

The Luxury Draw will offer the chance to win The Lounge, a fully curated set-up featuring furniture and design objects by the likes of Virgil Abloh c/o Vitra, Crosby Studios and more. Entries are now open on Basic.Space’s digital marketplace, where a simple $1 payment via Apple Pay unlocks the chance to win*. *No purchase or donation necessary. Official rules posted here. All proceeds from the Luxury Draw entries will benefit the Virgil Abloh Foundation to support underrepresented emerging creatives and designers.

The Lounge brings the feel of luxury air travel into the home this holiday season. At the center is a never-before-seen bespoke work by Crosby Studios, created exclusively for this draw, as well as items from Virgil Abloh c/o Vitra. Taking the form of a business-class airplane seat, Crosby Studios reimagines a familiar symbol of travel, status and comfort as a piece of functional sculpture. Rooted in the studio’s signature visual language, the seat is fully upholstered in a metallic silver fabric, complete with a reclining armchair, foot rest, and TV screen.

The Lounge also features a three-piece Virgil Abloh c/o Vitra collection, comprising a Ceramic Block, alongside the redesign of Jean Prouvé’s Antony chair (1950s) and Petite Potence lamp (1942) - all in Abloh’s signature baby blue colourway. The collection was first unveiled in 2019 on the Vitra Campus, before launching exclusively for sale on Basic.Space in 2020. Six years on, its return to Basic.Space marks a full-circle moment. To complete the prize set, The Lounge will include a pair of Gatto Lamps (1960s) by Achille and Pier Castiglioni for Flos; the 'Bambole' Sofa (1970s) by Mario Bellini for B&B Italia; a Diamond Dusty White Rug by Nordic Knots; and LC10-P Coffee Table (1990s) by Le Corbusier, Charlotte Perriand, and Pierre Jeanneret for Cassina.

The Lounge will be presented as a physical installation at Basic.Space New York (November 13-19, 2026), where shoppers can enter the Luxury Draw on-site via Apple Pay, with the winner to be randomly selected on December 8, 2026.

Basic.Space New York will reimagine the New York luxury department store through a distinctly downtown lens and offer a curated shopping experience centered around the holiday season. Taking cues from the city’s iconic institutions, holiday window displays, dedicated wrapping stations, and an overall luxury experience, Basic.Space New York will present a considered edit of giftable pieces across four shoppable verticals - design, art, fashion, and sound.

Jesse Lee, founder and CEO of Basic.Space, says: “Own The Future™ is more than our trademark - it’s the guiding principle behind Basic.Space. This Luxury Draw brings that idea to life, pairing something entirely new from Crosby Studios with a curated selection of contemporary and vintage design, available for consumers to enter for a chance to win with a simple $1 payment through Apple Pay on Basic.Space. We wanted to make highly coveted design accessible to everyone while supporting the next generation of creative talent through the Virgil Abloh Foundation. Virgil worked with us at Basic.Space, when it was just beginning and remains a huge inspiration. Taking this prize from online to IRL, at Basic.Space New York, is what we’re all about - discovery and access into the future.”

On The Lounge custom design, Harry Nuriev, designer and Founder of Crosby Studios, says: “I travel so much that the airplane seat has become a kind of one-square-meter studio for me. It’s where many of my ideas were born, a small, isolated capsule where I can focus, work, think, and disconnect from everything around me. With this object, I wanted to recreate that feeling.”

“Iron sharpens Iron: collaboration drives creativity and builds community. Virgil Abloh championed collaborative world-building and inspired many through his multidisciplinary practice, opening doors and sharing his methodology and design thinking across his projects. Through this partnership with Basic.Space, we will celebrate his spirit with the design community by offering access to his archival TWENTYTHIRTYFIVE Virgil Abloh c/o Vitra designs. Proceeds from this initiative will support the Virgil Abloh Foundation’s educational programs, equipping young creatives with the tools, resources, and guidance to realize their dreams," said Athiththan Selvendran, Chief Operating Officer of Virgil Abloh Securities, Chief Creative Officer of the Virgil Abloh Foundation, Director of Virgil Abloh Archive™.
