One&Only’s vertical urban resort is located in Dubai, close to the Dubai Mall, Burj Khalifa and the airport. The interiors, designed by Belgian Jean-Michel Gathy, feature a color palette that is a nod to the white sands of the desert.
Preciosa designed and produced 95 percent of the decorative lighting throughout the property, and used this inspiration to decorate the hotel’s 70 exclusive rooms with 300 pieces of hand-blown Bohemian crystal.
These include the forest of 18 hanging trees, composed of nearly 7,000 crystal rods, that greets guests in the hotel lobby. And 9 installations of Pearl Drop opal spheres, one of which is the longest (45 meters and nearly 900 hand-blown pearls) ever made by Preciosa.
