The coveted interior design collective needs no introduction. An award-winning design collective of architects, interior designers and product designers under the creative direction of YOO Head of Design, Mark Davidson.

The property development arm of the business, YOO Retreats, aims to create luxury, contemporary, designer second homes set in areas of outstanding natural beauty and set within gated communities in the UK and internationally.

Abstract House were delighted to be commissioned to create 3 bespoke paintings for the luxury Breeze and Artisan lake house accommodation at Lakes By YOO.

We were tasked with creating an original painting which showed the history of the lakes in a black, white and grey colour palette. Choosing paintings with a story for a hospitality venue add so much more to the narrative, and can excite and delight guests by sharing a piece of history within an original bespoke painting.

This was an excellent project to work on, and the grand architectural design with carefully considered materials aligned with our own values here at Abstract House. We only use the highest quality materials for our collection of original art and frames.
