Gibson Hotel

Chris recently made artwork for the interiors of the Gibson hotel in Dublin. The Gibson is a very modern 4 star hotel right next to, and same owner as the O2, which is Irelands largest music venue. The idea is that the performers and audience can stay after gigs and so its music themed. The brief was artwork ‘around rock legends’

Chris created these designs while i Kathmandu and originally proposed that to do the artworks as rugs! A huge thanks to the design team and Harry Crosbie. The team were ve
ry keen on the rugs, I explained about the work we were doing at NODE and they were considering making the entire mural as a rug, the only thing that stopped it was the long production time (for 40sqm+ of hand knotting!!) Instead it was done as a digital laminate print 

After we finished the job they have since bought 5 big rugs for the best rooms. They are in the penthouse room where the artists stay, this year including Bob Dylan, Roger Waters and Kylie Minogue (!)
