Scott King: Welcome to Saxnot

Was it collective nostalgia that led to the UK’s Brexit referendum result? Scott King creates a satirical proposal for a post-Brexit UK: A society oriented toward the values of security, tradition, camaraderie, and independence—and also highly reminiscent of yellowed postcards from 1970s British holiday resorts. Because everything was better back then, wasn’t it?

For gentlemen and gentlewomen: If you have always fancied wearing a Sherlock Holmes stalker hat, you’re in luck; also if you’re a fan of orange marmalade, young British design, tapes from the 1960s, or London street food like veggie pies or jerk chicken. And also Martinis—shaken, not stirred.
