Restaurant

AKI, One Cavendish Square, London

AKI is a restaurant at One Cavendish Square in London, set in a Grade II listed former banking hall. ArtisDomus led the art direction there and co-curated the collection, with site-specific commissions. Nine works were chosen for it from roughly one hundred candidates.

Nabil Nahas’s Untitled, 2023, is on the wall of the panelled green dining room. The room also has a buttoned banquette and a branched candelabrum. Two works were made especially for AKI as site-specific commissions. The engagement was renewed the following year for a brand activation.
