Scottish designer Nick Ross new furniture added to her collection

Scottish designer Nick Ross researched Roman accounts of his country's indigenous Caledonian people and used the findings to create a collection of furniture and homeware

The Last of the Free pieces are based on historical texts and objects from the National Museum of Scotland's Roman and Pictish collections, and are designed to represent the way indigenous Scottish tribes were depicted by the Roman Empire.

The project looks at the fictional narratives embedded in history and how these affect our current understanding of the past," said Ross, who works from a studio in Stockholm.
