Fairlawns Boutique Hotel & Spa, located in Johannesburg’s upmarket Sandton area, has collaborated with Ardmore Design to craft the new Satara Suite, which will launch on June 27.
Renowned artist Sydney Hadebe, acclaimed for his signature Ardmore fabric and scarf designs, joined forces with Wiseman Mpofu, a talented Ardmore painter. Together, they were entrusted with the task of adorning the wall of the large suite, with an awe-inspiring 24 square metre hand-painted mural.
“The vision was to create a one-of-a-kind Ardmore Suite, celebrating the spirit of Africa in vibrant hues and intricate designs. A tapestry of vibrant flora, with majestic leopards nestled amidst the branches, creates a tableau reminiscent of one of Africa's untamed wilderness areas in the Kruger, Satara,” said Michael Kewley, Group Managing Director of Fairlawns.
From the mural wall to the Ardmore ceramics and luxury home accents throughout the suite, the Ardmore Satara Suite is a fusion of art, craftsmanship and hospitality.
