Original contemporary art for hotels

We bring original contemporary art into hotels, from the lobby, bar and restaurant to rooms and suites. We choose works that suit the building, its story and its guests, and we know the artists we work with personally.

What we do

Each hotel has its own character, and we offer three ways of bringing art into its spaces. They can be chosen on their own or combined, to suit the building and its rhythm.

Acquisition

Your hotel acquires the works and they become part of its permanent collection.

Art rental

The works are placed on loan for an agreed period and can be rotated, so your spaces keep evolving without a large initial investment.

Art rental with sales

The works are placed on loan for an agreed period and are also available for your guests to acquire. We handle every sale and replace each acquired work with a new one, so your spaces stay complete.

Commissions

New work created in response to your brief and your space, arranged directly with the artist, from the first idea to the finished piece.

How we work

  1. 01

    A first conversation

    We learn about the hotel, its spaces, its guests and the timeline, alongside your owners, operators, architects and interior designers.

  2. 02

    A curated proposal

    A selection of works and artists for each space, shaped around the building, the brand and the way you choose to work with us.

  3. 03

    Bringing the works in

    Shipping, framing, installation and paperwork, arranged by us.

  4. 04

    Staying with you

    We rotate rented works, replace those acquired by your guests and introduce new artists as your spaces evolve.

Fees

Fees on request. We agree the scope with you first and confirm the fee before any work begins.

Questions

Do you work with hotels outside Athens and London?

Yes. We work with hotels across Greece and the United Kingdom.

I would like to host an art exhibition in our hotel. Can you help?

Yes. Our team takes care of the whole exhibition, from selecting the artists and the works to installation, the opening, promotion and communications if necessary.

I am organising a hotel event and would like to bring art into it. Is this something you do?

Yes. For years we have worked with hotels and businesses to bring art and culture into their events, whatever the occasion. Art gives an event a story of its own, sparks conversation between guests and leaves an impression that lasts well beyond the evening.

Can you work with our interior designer?

Yes. We work alongside architects and interior designers from the first brief to installation.

Can you arrange commissions for our hotel?

Yes. We arrange commissions directly with the artists we champion and stay involved from the brief to delivery.
