Welcome to Slow Living LDN.

In our fast-paced world, we believe that slow is the new luxury.

Slow luxury means celebrating unhurried moments of richer, deeper connection with ourselves, our loved ones and the natural world around us. Slow luxury means to savour the everyday and experience life more deeply, rather than simply skimming the surface. It’s about championing a pause in our decision making and celebrating true craftsmanship in place of overconsumption.

Join us and discover the benefits of a slower, more seasonal and considered lifestyle through our Slow Journal and Shop.

Slow Living LDN. was founded in London in 2018, but established in Wiltshire. Below you’ll find our values and meet our founder, Beth.

Meet the founder

Slow Living LDN. was founded in 2018 by Beth Crane.

Beth began exploring the concept of slow living after experiencing burnout and subsequently seeking to improve her work/life balance. From slow food to slow interiors, it soon became clear that the slow living movement encompassed so much more, and overlapped with Beth’s own values.

Beth has spent many years working in digital marketing and digital publishing for some of the UK’s best-known brands. She was named a PPA 30 under 30 winner in 2021, held a place on the PPA’s inaugural Next Gen Board, and has also won ELLE’s annual writing competition. She has been featured as an expert voice on the topic of slow living for multiple publications, including Metro UK.

Today, Slow Living LDN. blends Beth’s love of storytelling with her passion for slow, seasonal living.

Beth’s big on all things interiors. She loves natural materials and unique finds which showcase age and patina. In fact, you’ll often find her seeking out treasures at antique shops and flea markets. Beth also loves to cook and bake, usually setting a beautiful table to host friends and family, and making the most of the season’s freshest ingredients.

Our values

What we believe in at Slow Living LDN.

    Living consciously

    Considered

    We believe that by taking a considered approach to life, we make better decisions for our own well-being and that of the planet.

  • Crafted

    Celebrating craft

    Crafted

    We all know that good things take time.

    Slow luxury is to champion the handcrafted. It’s to celebrate the time and creativity poured into bringing a beautiful item or original piece of writing to life. In an era of excess and overconsumption, it reassigns true value to the items we choose.

    We work with artisans and small scale makers to fill our Shop with handcrafted delights.

  • Connected

    Connecting deeply

    Connected

    To live slower is to nurture richer connections with ourselves, with a sense of place, with the seasons, and with those we love.

    We believe in savouring a mindful life less hurried, living in pace with the changing seasons and seeking out authentic experiences of connection.

    In our Slow Journal, you’ll find inspiration around slow travel, seasonal living and gathering with loved ones around the table.
