The series is crafted from patinated brass, Japanese paper and Australian blackwood – materials chosen to celebrate raw texture and the cultural diversity of our time. Gentle light that diffuses by the paper also suits with different aesthetic spaces and does not overwhelm. This collection aims to enrich space in a sensitive way through the delivery of lighting that subtly speaks to nature, personal memory and design nostalgia.
Established in inner Sydney in 2012, the Studio Henry Wilson collection is characterised by utilitarianism and sculpture with focus on form and function.
Nicole Lawrence (b. 1993) is a Melbourne-based designer and maker specialising in furniture and lighting. Balancing structural purpose with artistic freedom, Lawrence draws on her technical expertise from over a decade of working with a myriad of materials and her process-led methodology to create contemporary, collectible pieces.
GAIA: A tactile ode to the natural world, capturing the shifting cycles of sun, wind and sea. In collaboration with Catalonia artist Carla Cascales Alimbau, the collection blends silk, wool, linen and jute into woven. landscapes.
Armadillo’s Panorama collection evokes the sweeping landscape of an old-world homestead perched in the bucolic hills, with an exquisite melange of weaves that redefine sophisticated comfort. From the cocooning to the free flowing, each space layered with this tapestry of textures becomes a true haven.
