Well Placed: XXV Years of Alexander Lamont

At R HUGHES, we’ve long admired Alexander Lamont for the poetic rigor he brings to furniture, lighting, and objects. Now, as Alexander Lamont marks 25 years of remarkable craftsmanship, we’re honored to present XXV — a collection that distills the studio’s singular vision into a series of striking new works.

XXV feels like a quiet triumph: forms that are monumental yet refined, with every surface shaped by the hands of artisans who have mastered age-old techniques. In materials like parchment, shagreen, and vibrantly hued straw, the pieces echo architectural fragments — primal, sculptural, and deeply tactile. There’s a tension in the work that is uniquely Lamont: the ancient and the urbane coexisting with quiet intensity.

Rooted in the myths and materiality of ancient Britain, XXV reminds us that every object is a continuation of history — shaped by time, nature, and human touch. We invite you to explore this milestone collection, and to witness the depth of care, vision, and soul that continues to define Alexander Lamont after a quarter-century of excellence.
