Brise de printemps is an art installation created by Nina Helms and located in the Lobby Lounge of the luxury hotel. The piece features seven different sculpted interpretations of 438 dogwood flowers in various stages of a bloom cycle that seem to float across the wall. Each sculpture was created by hand, using classic sculpting methods with exquisite attention to detail and craftsmanship.

“I see the Loews Regency Hotel as a host and a catalyst for power and innovation. For the reemergence of this influential hotel I wanted to create a piece that interpreted that potential and transformation as captured in the simple beauty of nature. My ultimate goal in designing the sculpture was for guests to experience this feeling in an elemental form,” says Helms.

The pieces used in this installation bring the entire nature theme together.  The colors, materials set the mood for a space we all covet for our homes.
