Modern, minimal homeware inspired by nature
For the longest time Scotland – specifically the Highlands – has been a source of both mystery and inspiration to me.
Maybe it’s my Lawson ancestry from the highlands or perhaps, given I grew up in Australia, I in some way feel I have come home when I see the big skies and endless terrains where the horizon is a faraway land. Maybe it’s a bit of both.
The cloud-shrouded or snow-capped summits that crown glens rich with heather, moss and rocks as well as lochs and winding rivers, offer such a visual treat.
The scale and depth of the Scottish Highlands is what inspired my new collections for autumn and winter – the Aki and the Shima ranges. Both are sumptuous wool blend fabrics that lend themselves to everything from curtains to chair upholstery and both borrow palettes from the landscape of the Highlands.
The Aki comes in four different colours – all evoking the untamed landscape of the north of Scotland: Rust, White Heather, Moss and Stone and all sharing a tonality with my existing ranges.
The Shima is a soft tartan in both Pine and Silt – an elegant, contemporary take on one of the world’s most recognisable patterns.
While the new ranges are an obvious fit for cooler months, as with all Alix Lawson Home fabrics, they work effortlessly year-round in any home – from a quaint cottage to minimal city apartment.
As we see out summer, and watch the leaves turn from green to gold and fall, both of my new collections offer calming comfort – as well as a slice of rare Scottish magic.
