Mondrian London, an icon of contemporary luxury on the South Bank, has introduced an eye-catching lobby installation by acclaimed artist Maciej Urbanek as part of its curated participation in the London Design Festival 2025.
The centerpiece, entitled ‘Diamond Propeller,’ transforms the hotel’s expansive lobby windows into a dynamic visual experience. In celebration of the festival, Mondrian London is also hosting an immersive schedule of design-focused events, including interactive workshops and thought-leadership talks in collaboration with The School of Life.
Overlooking the River Thames within the renowned Sea Containers building, Mondrian London stands as a beacon of modern design. The property, conceptualized by Design Research Studio under the creative leadership of Tom Dixon, seamlessly fuses the brand’s signature flair with the vibrant energy of the Southbank arts district.
The London Design Festival remains a highlight of the city’s cultural calendar, drawing world-class innovators in furniture, textiles, architecture, and product design to showcase their latest creations and trends.
Guests are invited to experience the dramatic installation firsthand and engage with Maciej Urbanek, who will share insights on his creative journey and emerging projects. In addition, Jacu Strauss—the lead designer who collaborated with Tom Dixon on the hotel’s interiors—will conduct exclusive behind-the-scenes tours, highlighting the property’s bespoke features and design narratives. These events are scheduled throughout the festival week, with complimentary admission for attendees.
‘Diamond Propeller’ will remain on display at Mondrian London for a six-month period, inaugurating a new series of rotating contemporary art commissions curated for the hotel’s lobby. According to a recent statement, Mondrian London is committed to championing avant-garde art and supporting new talent, further cementing its status as a vital destination on London’s cultural map.
