Majestic Mosaics by Sicis

Carrying the signature of WATG (Wimberly Allison Tong & Goo), one of the most important architectural firms in the hospitality sector, Emirates Palace is one of the most spectacular hotels ever built in the Middle East. Mosaics and decorations by Sicis give a unique sense of opulence to the swimming pools that envelop the gardens, while hand-made Murano glass installations don the interiors celebrating luxury and lavishness. Sicis’ mosaic tesserae also lend their golden glow to the dome of the Grand Atrium and several of the hotel’s restaurants.

For the 7-star Burj Al Arab, a hotel that has become a point of reference for cosmopolitan luxury travellers, Sicis has provided many of the instantly recognizable majestic backdrops that distinguish the hotel. A series of mosaic installations in marble and glass with delicate designs in golden and metallic shades create an atmosphere of lavishness and opulence in a re-imagined, contemporary version of traditional Arabic motifs. Hand-made minute mosaics have been used throughout the hotel in the indoor and outdoor areas and can be admired on floors and walls of suites and restaurants, on columns and domes, in the spa as well as in the imposing hotel lobby that has welcomed royalty, celebrities and CEOs and managed to impress them all.
