The Connaught
Award: Wood Pencil
Wood Pencil / Crafts for Design / Illustration for Design / 2014
Since its refurbishment, the iconic Connaught hotel has become one London's most sophisticated and singular destinations. We told the story of its 200 year tradition, detailing the hotel’s idiosyncrasies through a distinctive piece of art that also articulates its unique identity. A year was spent researching and creating the collaged, hand coloured etchings, which were layered in a quintessentially British way. Each look reveals a little more of the ‘wonderland in Mayfair’.
