Tropical Trouvaille

It is a great pleasure to dedicate today’s Tile Addict to the work of my old school friends from Magdalen College School, Julian Opie.  When the Hamilton Princess Hotel & Beach Club in Bermuda commissioned Julian to design a 13 metre long installation for its marina, he designed a frieze featuring his signature stylised figures in patinated bronze inlaid into Antalya Cream limestone.  Julian turned to stoneCIRCLE to create the artwork for him, as the firm had previously worked with him on his installation at the CitizenM, Tower of London Hotel.
