Gallery Elise is a new creative platform founded by Alison Legge, dedicated to presenting exceptional collectible design and artisanal craftsmanship.
For more than two decades, Alison has been closely connected to the international design community, most recently through Élan Atelier, a collaborative venture that introduced a refined sculptural aesthetic to the market. Élan Atelier was formed through the shared vision of Alison Legge, Christopher Noto, and the extraordinary creative studio Muse Design, whose artistry shaped the collections celebrated by designers, collectors, and luxury interiors worldwide.
During this partnership, the Muse Collection became widely known in the United States under the Élan Atelier name. As Alison and Christopher now embark on independent design paths, the original collaboration evolves with grace and gratitude.
At Gallery Elise, we are honored to continue presenting the visionary work of Muse Design, our longtime collaborators and artistic family, alongside our own signature collections. Together, these bodies of work reflect a shared devotion to timeless creation, soulful materiality, and the beauty of the handmade.
Gallery Elise is a home for enduring artistry, a platform where meaningful creative relationships continue to flourish, and a space for new expressions in contemporary design.
Our next furniture collection, designed with a sustainable ethos, will debut in early 2026.
