Scottish Design Awards 2024

14.05.2024

We are so grateful for the Scottish Design Awards 2024 nominations in two categories: Interior and Print Design. In the Interior Design category, our collaboration with artisan Daniel Brophy on the internal refurbishment for Buff at St Ninian’s Manse in Edinburgh has been recognised for its seamless blend of history and contemporary aesthetics. Through meticulous material selection, we aimed to create a space conducive to contemplation and well-being, honouring the site’s heritage (Category A-listed, thought to be the oldest building in Leith),  while infusing it with warmth and tranquillity.

Similarly, ‘The Gathering Hand’ publication in the Print Design category reflects our commitment to craftsmanship and collaboration, showcasing our inaugural object and furniture collection. Each piece represents a harmonious balance of traditional techniques and modern sensibilities. Designed with simplicity and elegance, the publication offers a glimpse into the meticulous process behind each creation. Congratulation to both our teams, clients and all involved.
