MacKenzie-Childs, the artisan-driven, American-heritage home décor brand, is thrilled to announce a new collaboration with acclaimed fine art photographer, Gray Malin. This limited-edition collection marks a captivating fusion, blending two distinctive creative worlds to launch a dreamy, winter escape collection.

Perfect for the upcoming winter season, the collection draws inspiration from Malin's signature aerial photography of snow-covered alpine scenes, reimagining MacKenzie-Childs' iconic checkered pattern with a new icy-blue color palette and skier motifs. The dreamy blues and frosted whites echo the serene elegance of mountain peaks viewed from above, with the added whimsically playful touch of skiers enjoying the thrill of the slopes.

"Collaborating with MacKenzie-Childs was a natural extension of my artistic world," said Gray Malin. "There's a shared sense of playfulness, craftsmanship, and storytelling in both our work. For this collection, I drew inspiration from my photography of snow-covered destinations, the cool tones and alpine scenes bring a fresh perspective to the iconic check."

The collection features 15 thoughtfully designed pieces spanning serveware, dinnerware, and home accessories through the lens of wintry wonder, starting at $69. With standout items including elegant serving platters, a stunning picture frame, and a cozy checkered throw, the collection is perfect for picturesque winter gatherings and brings alpine charm to any space or tablescape.

"At MacKenzie-Childs, we pride ourselves in creating pieces that spark imagination and tell a story. Collaborating with Gray Malin allowed us to explore a winter wonderland in an entirely new light," said John Ling, Chief Executive Officer of MacKenzie-Childs. "Gray's ability to capture the beauty and whimsy of the world from above beautifully complements our design philosophy, resulting in a collection which celebrates creativity, craftsmanship and winter enchantment."

The MacKenzie-Childs x Gray Malin collection is available today exclusively at Bloomingdale's, mackenzie-childs.com and the company's retail stores in New York City and Aurora.
