Founder Lauren Clare

Founder Lauren Clare hails from the lush landscapes of Australia, equally influenced by the bush and the surrounding oceans of her childhood. Despite growing up with the sun and sea, she made Switzerland her home in 2009 and established Atoll Life GmbH in 2020. She and her three children embrace the values of both countries, with regular visits to Australia serving as a continuous wellspring of design inspiration. Atoll Life reflects Lauren’s deep connection to her heritage and her unwavering passion for nature, color, design, art, fashion, and style. Lauren enriches her creations with earthy elements sourced globally, and creating timeless and enduring pieces that celebrate life.

Lauren draws from the collective aesthetic of her extended family, and translates these influences into contemporary jewelry that resonates with both tradition and innovation. The jewelry transcends mere adornment, as it carries with it the stories, sentiments, and timeless elegance of generations past.

Lauren’s professional journey reached into the realms of fashion, design, and media. Her path led her into the world of the jewelry and watch industries in Biel-Bienne, Switzerland, where she acquired a deep appreciation for the Swiss values of precision and craftsmanship. Even as her design career in Europe was growing, her heart remained with the vibrant landscapes of Australia. Therefore, Lauren’s design ethos reflect these dualities: quality hand-artistry and an eye for detail balanced with a colorful playfulness and wildness inspired by nature.
