Over the past four years, the Artiq team has successfully designed, procured, and curated an art collection for the guestrooms, heritage suites, corridors and some notable moments within the public areas, such as the magnificent ballroom and the new culinary destination by renowned chef Mauro Colagreco.

These curations all needed to be worthy of the historical heritage and sensitives of such a grand building. Tapping into the local creative community, the collection highlights the best artistic talent living and working in London today.
A collaborative effort with multiple institutions, artists, and other creative shareholders, it's been a privilege for Artiq to be part of the evolution of the Old War Office.
