Latvian outfit Liepa Skopina Borenius is a firm like no other, peopled by god-like creatures at one with themselves and nature.

Not for them a night on the tiles or an evening at the flicks. According to the biographies on the firm’s website, they’re too busy picking apples, climbing trees, on beaches reading obscure Russian books, or simply sitting by the fire nursing cups of sweet-scented mulled wine.
