We show that every Lorentz sequence space $d(\textbf {w},p)$ admits a 1-complemented subspace Y distinct from $\ell _p$ and containing no isomorph of $d(\textbf {w},p)$ . In the general case, this is only the second nontrivial complemented subspace in $d(\textbf {w},p)$ yet known. We also give an explicit representation of Y in the special case $\textbf {w}=(n^{-\theta })_{n=1}^\infty $ ( $0<\theta <1$ ) as the $\ell _p$ -sum of finite-dimensional copies of $d(\textbf {w},p)$ . As an application, we find a sixth distinct element in the lattice of closed ideals of $\mathcal {L}(d(\textbf {w},p))$ , of which only five were previously known in the general case.
