NANTES, A MURAL THAT REFLECTS ITS IMAGE

Through mosaic art, we pay tribute to the city of Nantes and its emblematic elephant, using this ancient and enduring technique.

ANCHORING THE GROUP’S VALUES AND BRAND IMAGE

Each handcrafted piece will be unique to each hotel, giving them a distinct identity.

Collaborations with artists highlight one of the group’s fundamental pillars: the human element at the heart of every project. The construction of this eco-responsible establishment illustrates Akena Hotels’ commitment to diversifying their offerings and differentiating themselves from other French hotel groups.

I find that mosaic art is both ultra-modern and timeless, with origins dating back up to 8,000 years. Mosaics are deeply woven into our culture, serving as a continuous thread through history and civilizations. This nobility of the art form is what inspired me.

The result has exceeded my expectations; not only does the artwork enhance our hotel, but today, mosaics are seen as symbols both through their representation (the elephant from the Machines of the Isle and the Akena logo of our franchisor) and by their inherent nobility.
