9 Dynamic Art Installations Foster Interest and Engagement

Project: St. Regis Mexico City

The details: Cascading down the hotel’s multiple floors and emanating a rainbow shimmer on its descent, the Twirl chandelier from LASVIT is an eye-catching 2020 addition to the Yabu Pushelberg-designed St. Regis Mexico City. The 358 pieces of fine Bohemain glass gather on a table in the hotel’s ground floor foyer, creating a dramatic lighting installation inspired by the way water flows through Mexico’s cenotes—sinkholes that were sacred to the ancient Mayans and now are popular tourist destinations. “I intended to bring life and movement to the space,” says LASVIT designer Katarína Kudějová Fulínová. “This waterfall of glass refreshes the weary traveler and lets them bask in a pool of light.”
