Mortlach by Design Collaborated with SIZED on a New Collection
Elena Rahman — May 19, 2022 — Art & Design
Mortlach by Design, the acclaimed whisky brand, partnered with Joe Doucet and Sabine Marcelis to create bespoke products that harness the beauty and heritage of single malt scotch whisky. The collection is currently on view in New York City at SIZED, a popup gallery by Alexander May.
Sabina Marcelis created a bespoke glass bar cart, dubbed the SHIFT. The cart's design was inspired by the opacity and colorway of Martlach whisky. Made with a layered exterior piece, the glass reflects the duality of transparency and opacity that is also present in the whisky. Moreover, the glass imitates the deep golden hue of the beverage.
Joe Doucet's contribution to the range includes the Tropos chair. The chair was intended to create an immersive space where users can fully engage with the whisky's complexity.
