  • curated by

    Atelier 27

Since June 2022, LeveL II as a room-filling installation, is hanging in the grand foyer of Rosewood Vienna, welcoming hotel guests with its artistic presence. Designed specifically to complement the atrium, the piece is composed of 28 rods, making it the largest permanently installed version of Level II to date. The installation is crafted primarily from lightweight materials, including carbon and Japanese paper, allowing it to hang gracefully from the stunning glass ceiling. As it delicately moves, it brings a sense of volume and light to this elegant space.
