Rope

Inspiration and Techniques

Laurence’s work is shaped by both necessity and environment. Living on the water with a young family, he’s drawn to designs that balance utility with quiet beauty. He explores traditional knotting and basketry methods, reworking them through his own lens to suit rope as a primary material. Using mainly flax rope, he incorporates subtle, plant-dyed tones created in collaboration with a natural dyer, giving each piece its own gentle character. Every object he makes is an invitation to live simply and make space for the handmade.
