Stellar
A Festive Light Installation
A Constellation of Light
This festive season, discover Stellar, a new multicoloured light installation by renowned contemporary British artist duo Rob and Nick Carter at The Berkeley. Transforming the hotel's entrance into a living field of light and motion, Stellar invites guests and the neighbourhood beneath a vibrant canopy of colour and festive magic.
An Ever-Changing Display
The kinetic installation is composed of 37 bespoke neon stars of light that respond to the flow of human movement, arrivals and departures - echoing the rhythm of life within the hotel and engaging and enveloping guests underneath it. Its interactive light and colour patterns shift playfully, evolving festive energy and the effect is immersive and personal - an ever-changing glow and constellation that celebrates the spirit of arrival and connection during the Christmas season.
Created for The Berkeley
This marks the second consecutive year that The Berkeley has collaborated with husband-and-wife artist duo Rob and Nick Carter to create its festive lights. Building on last year's installation, Stellar reflects the artists' longstanding exploration of colour, light and movement, brought to life through precision engineering and contemporary artistry.
A Season of Wonder
Unveiled on 12 November 2026, Stellar transforms the hotel's Knightsbridge façade into a dazzling festive spectacle. Throughout the season, guests and passers-by alike are invited to experience a moment of unexpected joy, surprise and delight beneath its vibrant canopy of stars.
Rob and Nick CarterWe wanted Stellar to bring a sense of wonder and magic to The Berkeley, creating something extraordinary, radiant and celestial that reflects the hotel’s creative flair.
