Drew Michael Scott
Lone Fox’s own on vintage finds, trusting his eye, and opening a store against advice.
Drew Michael Scott wants your home to look like you found every object in it yourself. The Lone Fox founder fills rooms with vintage pieces, old design books, and objects with a past, mixing eras until a space feels complete. His third collection with Joon Loloi just launched. This time he went with his gut: animal print, patchwork, borders, and a little Gothic, which he thinks will surprise people. Here, he shares the Parma vintage market that inspires him, the Fortuny lamps he can't stop researching, and the advice he proudly ignored about opening a store.
Can you tell us more about your creative process?
My creative process is really about finding inspiration in unexpected places and allowing myself to experiment. I’m drawn to vintage pieces, old design books, and objects with history because they bring a sense of character and individuality that you can’t always find in something new. I love mixing different eras, textures, and styles to create something that feels collected rather than overly designed. I also think it’s important to trust your own eye and not get too caught up in trends. My style has evolved so much over the years, and some of my best ideas come from being open to where the process takes me!
Three places you’ve felt inspired by. (City, space, park, museum, restaurant, corner store, club)
- Printemps in New York City.
- Stockholm, Sweden: there’s so much inspiration in the architecture, and Swedish design is some of my favorite.
- The vintage market Mercanteinfiera in Parma, Italy.
What’s an item you can’t live without?
A hat because I don’t like to do my hair every day!
What song are you listening to on repeat?
I’ve really been loving Slayyyter's and Remi Wolf's new albums!
What can't you stop thinking about and why?
I’ve been doing a lot of research on Fortuny fabric and lights. The craftsmanship is so interesting, and I love the elevation it adds to the space.
Who is your forever inspo?
Kelly Wearstler: she’s been able to create an empire and has such individual style. I love her fashion and interiors. It’s inspiring how she scaled her business and has become such a household name.
