The Challenge

As part of the wider reimagining of the food and beverage spaces at The Salthouse Hotel in Suffolk, we were tasked with conceiving and creating a sculptural focal point for the main dining room.

The concept for the project centred around the idea of space as art - alongside the hotel’s ever-evolving collection of artwork, the interiors themselves would become part of the creative conversation. The challenge was to create a statement piece that felt both visually striking and intrinsically connected to the identity and history of the hotel.

The Solution

The result is a bespoke suspended light sculpture inspired by the molecular structure of salt - a subtle reference to the hotel’s historic connection to the Suffolk salt marshes. A series of illuminated nodes and connectors form an abstract crystalline framework, suspended above the dining space.

A soft, flowing lighting sequence moves gently across the installation, bringing a sense of movement and rhythm to the structure. The effect is both dramatic and calming - a sculptural centrepiece that transforms the atmosphere of the room while reinforcing the wider artistic narrative of the project.
