Hotel lobby sculpture guests remember
The best hotel installations become part of how guests describe the place. A familiar object blown up to the size of a room, or a sculptural bench in a bold colour, ends up in check-in photos, social posts and press shots. That is the piece we make.
We work with your interior designer so the sculpture feels native to the space: the palette, the sheen of the surrounding finishes and the mood of the brand. It should feel like it was always meant to be there.
What we make for hotels
Each piece is a large-format 3D print, built in sections, then joined, filled, sanded, primed and painted in our NYC studio.
- A lobby centerpiece scaled to the room, like a giant paperclip or an oversized key
- Sculptural benches and seating that double as art
- Glowing light sculptures in clear PETG for lounges and restaurants
- A playful oversized object for the bar or the rooftop
- Wall reliefs for corridors and elevator lobbies
- A family of related pieces across several properties
Durable, cleanable, guest-proof
Hotel pieces live with constant traffic. Guests touch them, lean on them and pose with them, and housekeeping cleans them every day. We build internal framing where people sit or lean, use hard-wearing coatings that handle routine cleaning, round off edges in touch zones and fix bases so nothing tips.
Large pieces are hollow shells printed in sections, so they stay light enough to bring through a service entrance and up a guest elevator, then join seamlessly on site. Seams are filled, sanded and painted, so the finished piece reads as one solid object, not a print.
For rooftops and terraces we plan for sun, heat and wind as well, with UV-resistant coatings and anchoring agreed with your team.
Custom sculpture fabrication, finished like furniture
We print in white or clear PETG only. All colour is paint, so we can match your interior exactly or work from our palette, such as 05 Vermilion or 04 Signal. Only clear PETG can glow, so light pieces are printed clear and tinted with a translucent coat. Flexible TPU 70A is coming soon for soft-touch parts. See our materials and paint palette for the full range.
If the piece needs to change with seasons or campaigns, we can plan for repainting or swappable parts from the start.
How it works
- Share the space, the design intent and your opening or refresh date.
- We work with your designer on form, scale and finish, then quote.
- You approve a colour and finish sample in the space.
- We print, finish and pre-assemble in the studio.
- We install around hotel operations, including overnight.
What to send us
Rough is fine. For a hospitality brief, send:
- Floor plans, elevations or photos of the space
- Interior palette and finish references
- Who will touch it and how housekeeping will clean it
- Indoor, outdoor or covered terrace
- Load-in route and building rules
Planning the restaurant or bar too? See our installations for restaurants and bars. Developing residences as well? See residential lobby sculpture. When you are ready, send the project through Start a print.
Questions
How do you clean a 3D printed sculpture in a hotel?
Most finished pieces clean with a soft cloth and mild soap and water. We give your housekeeping team care notes and avoid finishes that cannot handle routine cleaning.
Can guests sit on a sculptural bench?
Yes, if it is designed as seating. Seating pieces get an internal frame, a stable base and a durable coating so they work as furniture as well as art.
Can you install without disrupting guests?
Yes. We plan installs around your operations, including overnight or early-morning windows, and finish pieces in the studio so on-site work stays short.
Can a hotel sculpture light up?
Yes, when it is printed in clear PETG. Clear pieces take a translucent tint and can hold LEDs; white PETG pieces are opaque and painted.
