Philosophy

For more than three decades Lillian August Licensed collections, showrooms, and award-winning interior design has been at the forefront of the luxury home furnishings and design industry. The long-established lifestyle brand is known for timeless design; seamlessly blending classical traditional and modern styles with Lillian’s signature mix of vibrant color and pattern. Today the brand is licensed in over 15 home furnishing categories–sold through the finest furniture stores, websites; and most recently mass merchants such as TJX and Costco under the fast-growing Lillian, Lillian August brand.

Co-founders Lillian August and Dan Weiss have led the company’s creative efforts from its inception. Most recently, Lillian’s granddaughter Eliza has joined the team adding the third generation of design leadership- thus insuring that a multitude of new ideas will keep the company exciting and relevant for many years to come.

Originally from Philadelphia, Lillian was a fine arts major at University of Pennsylvania and graduated from William and Mary. She did her graduate work in aesthetics and color theory. Her love of archival design from interiors to textiles was founded in her educational years.

Following her decades long career with ongoing dedication to her craft and her family, Lillian remains as a passionate creative director, together they have achieved industry recognition as a legacy brand by THE ARTS AWARDS, WITHIT, and now a nomination for LUXE 2022 FURNITURE AWARD.

“Color is what gets me out of bed in the morning… The opportunity to work with pure color is inspiring!”

As a global lifestyle brand, Lillian and her son Dan Weiss have embraced the challenge of designing ongoing collections, for the international home fashion markets – seeking out global influences that keep product collections aspirational and relevant.
