At Signia by Hilton Atlanta, one of the city’s biggest new hotel developments, the creativity of our community shows on every wall. The hotel designed its public space with the experience of a gallery in mind, focusing on the art of local artists as well as national and international creators with strong ties to the region.
“The Art of Signia” is a permanent collection on view for casual visitors and guests alike.
Curation for the collection began in 2018 when plans for the hotel were finalized and a collaborative team of designers, architects, the Hilton team and the Georgia World Congress Center came together to select artworks from across the southeast, shared Sally Faulkner, principal at Faulkner + Locke, the design firm that helped bring the collection to life.
Faulkner recently joined “City Lights” host Lois Reitzes to discuss the development.
The Signia team commissioned multiple pieces of artwork to complete the collection, including a gigantic installation that sits on top of the lobby itself, created by Georgia Tech architecture professor Tristan Al Haddad.
