Monthly Roundup - January
January Roundup: Fresh Starts and Inspiration for the New Year
January is a time for new beginnings, fresh perspectives, and setting the tone for the year ahead. As the holiday decor is packed away and routines settle back into place, it’s the perfect moment to reflect, refresh, and realign. Here’s what we’ve been loving, learning, and focusing on this month at Lawless Design and The Lawless Design Shoppe.
Design Highlights
Winter Wellness at Home Creating spaces that nurture well-being is at the heart of what we do, and January’s chilly weather is a reminder of the importance of cozy, restorative spaces. We’ve been focusing on:
Layered Textures: Think wool throws, linen bedding, and soft rugs underfoot.
Natural Light: Maximizing daylight hours and incorporating warm, ambient lighting for the evenings.
Non-Toxic Materials: Choosing furniture and decor that’s as healthy as it is beautiful.
Project Updates
Project French Chateau: We’ve been hard at work on this stunning project, blending timeless elegance with modern functionality. The goal? A home that feels like a sanctuary while honoring its architectural roots. Check out the project reveal here.
Seattle: We are working on an exciting new Distance Design project! Stay tuned for updates.
CT Farm: Framing is done and the roof is on. Check out our stories for more.
Shoppe Favorites
Our vintage finds have been a standout this month! Here are a few of our January Shoppe stars:
Vintage Candleholders: Perfect for adding a touch of warmth to winter evenings.
Handmade Ceramic Vessels: Beautiful as standalone pieces or as homes for fresh greenery.
Wool Area Rugs: The perfect foundation for creating a cozy, grounded space.
Each piece in the Shoppe is carefully curated to bring timeless character and sustainability into your home.
Wellness Practices We’re Loving
This month, we’ve been focusing on wellness practices that ground and energize:
Morning Sunlight Exposure: Starting the day with natural light to regulate circadian rhythms.
Decluttering: A clear space truly leads to a clear mind. January is the perfect time for a refresh.
Winter Walks: Bundling up and stepping outside, even on the coldest days, has been a wonderful way to stay connected to nature.
