THE BRAND
Alexander Lamont makes collections of furniture, lighting, objects and wall panels with unexpected natural materials and refined hand techniques that have been used for centuries in Europe and Asia. Our minimal, organic and tailored designs show a contemporary reverence for rituals of craftsmanship and the energy that human skills impart into every piece.
Alexander Lamont
A surface of lines that rises, swells and falls like the wake of a ship. Corrugated and gliding, Drift makes gentle patterns that mix tonality and light creating contemporary artwork for rooms and accent walls. Available in Verdigris and Wisteria.
Alexander Lamont
The Forêt wall panels have generous lines of straw criss-crossing the field of vision to create a strong sense of depth and the sensation of being drawn into a forest. Finishes: Beechwood Bronze Ebony
Alexander Lamont
Graded tones of bronze and ebony straw are combined in the Havana wall panels to create a tailored pattern of shimmering lines.
Alexander Lamont
Inspired by the mosaics and tiles of ancient Rome, Tryst has a classical aspect alongside a contemporary sense due to the lightness and reflectivity of straw. The feeling of of shapes emerging and plains receding creates a wonderfully alluring drama. Available in a natural palette or in tones of Wisteria and Verdigris.
Alexander Lamont
Tashi is inspired by the traditional textiles of the Himalayas; soft repeating woven lines are re-imagined in lustrous straw and a wonderful luminosity and sense of depth emerges. Contrasting shell and colours are inlaid into the pattern like ‘loose threads’ that amuse and catch the eye.
Alexander Lamont
Sun shining through a lattice was the inspiration for Soleil; the gorgeous reflectivity of straw allows different plains to hold light or shine forth. The linear form gives a sense of depth looking through to evening sun.
Alexander Lamont
A wall of conceptual and contemporary art? Rising and falling in subtle natural tones, Stepping Stones creates a trompe l’oeil of three-dimensional repeating plains that makes a unique accent wall.
Alexander Lamont
Pierrot is a dancing arrangement of musical whimsy and silent mime that moves in the light between shaded tones of taupe and chocolate. Made from intricate straw marquetry using tonal groups to create lustrous subtle contrast.
Alexander Lamont
Labirinto I and II layers the natural vibrancy and reflectivity of straw marquetry in Beechwood or Ebony with fine lines of hand-applied Mercury Gold leaf or Silver leaf. As light - or the viewer – moves, different iterations of the design become visible; a tribal textile appears with strong archaic lines that then fades as the metallic lines appear creating a precise graphic sensibility. The more you look at Labirinto, the more deeply you are drawn into its three-dimensional world
Alexander Lamont
During the 1920’s, ivory was used on luxurious furniture. Sliced thinly, it would gradually crack in beautiful ways. We have followed exactly these lines and cracks to create large scale gesso panels that we feel are the closest surface to real ivory it is possible to achieve. With our ‘Ivoire’, everything is created by the hand of the skilled gesso maker.
Alexander Lamont
A beautiful surface of polished details. Lace requires meticulous care and attention in creating fine cracks that are consistent but not too consistent. The idea is to build a linear tracery that is full of tiny imperfections and make a constantly varying texture and interest in the surface. Burnishing with agate stones polishes the surface by hand before a protective clear layer is applied.
Alexander Lamont
Tall bamboo-like spires in varying tones have been interwoven with fine polychrome details that give a subtle crafted pop to this simple natural design.
Alexander Lamont
Inspired by the works of Sonia Delaunay, this enigmatic design by Antonio da Motta presents large fluid shapes and lines within curvilinear fields of rich natural colour reminiscent of his Brazilian homeland. It is presented in two colourways: Sonja I; a blend of warm taupes and browns. Sonja II; vibrant Brazilian greens and yellows.
Alexander Lamont
Hide and Seek is a vision of dimensionality created with extremely precise skills. Brown, red and natural straw are applied in ‘boxes’ of lines that move and deepen dramatically as light infuses them.
Alexander Lamont
Perle Wall Tiles create luxurious wall surfaces using the myriad beads of natural enamel that make up stingray skins.
Alexander Lamont
The Helio Jar from Alexander Lamont's limited Pleiades series adds a unique visual interest to any space. The Nebula pattern subtly incorporates eggshell, abalone, and lacquer, creating a harmonious blend of textures.
