ART CONSULTANCY
At Benson Bailey Studio, we believe art is an essential part of place-making. Beyond architecture and interiors, we offer art consultancy as part of our design process, helping clients curate, commission, and integrate artworks that bring identity, vibrancy, and cultural value to their projects.
Our team has worked alongside various artists to deliver site-specific pieces for hotels, hospitality venues, heritage buildings, and public spaces. From large-scale installations and murals to bespoke sculptures and curated collections, we collaborate with artists to ensure every artwork is authentic to the place and meaningful to the community.
By weaving art into the fabric of our projects, we help create spaces that are not only functional and beautiful, but also memorable, culturally rich, and enduring.
