168 custom LightPanels illuminating one of New York's most iconic landmarks — from the Starlight Pool to the Presidential Library.
The Waldorf Astoria New York — one of the world's most celebrated hotels — underwent a landmark restoration by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM). EOS Light was selected to provide 168 custom LightPanels across the building's premier amenity spaces, including the Starlight Pool, Winter Garden, Guerlain Spa, Presidential Library, and the restored Park Avenue Foyer. Each panel was engineered to integrate seamlessly with the building's Art Deco architecture while delivering precise, tunable illumination behind decorative grills, coffered ceilings, and luminous domes.
