About Sonia Nicolson

Sonia Nicolson is an architect, artist, and educator based in Reykjavík, Iceland. Her hand-drawn prints are inspired by the country’s iconic architecture, wild landscapes, and minimalist design culture. Each piece begins as a pen-and-ink sketch — capturing the charm of Iceland’s churches, cabins, lighthouses, and everyday structures through a designer’s lens. Originally from Scotland, Sonia studied architecture and worked internationally before settling in Iceland with her family. Her background in design and education, combined with a love for slow, analogue processes, shapes the work she creates today. All prints are locally printed in Reykjavík using high-quality, sustainable materials. Sonia’s work is popular with both locals and visitors who want to bring a piece of Iceland into their homes — whether it’s a reminder of their travels, a thoughtful gift, or a minimalist art piece to complement Nordic interiors. Sonia’s business has grown through social media, pop-up markets, and commissions. Her prints are now available for wholesale, with low minimums, fast shipping, and custom bundles available on request.Read their story
