The recently opened FIVE LUXE Hotel at Jumeirah Beach Residence (JBR) in Dubai has added another layer of luxury to its offerings, through custom lighting installations by Czech lighting design specialist Sans Souci. Comprising nearly 20 unique glass installations, the beautifully crafted lighting brings a shimmering elegance to the hotel’s interiors. Drawing inspiration from the surrounding underwater world, the pieces reflect the dynamic beauty of the sea in every detail. “The custom chandeliers seamlessly underline the visual identity of the hotel,” says Elie El Khoury, Sans Souci’s Middle East partner. 

The highlight among these is a breathtaking twelve-metre chandelier that adorns the hotel’s glass-enclosed lobby. Visible from every angle, this intricate design draws on the vibrant and diverse marine life that characterises Dubai’s coastal environment. Composed of crystal balls, sandblasted spheres and droplet-like forms reminiscent of fish, the chandelier evokes the feeling of being submerged in the ocean. Veronika Vančurová, head designer at Sans Souci, added a metal spiral to the design to symbolise a coral reef, while also incorporating elements of feng shui to create a harmonious flow. Dynamic lighting scenes simulate underwater currents, offering guests an immersive experience as they enter the space. Treating each glass component with a special nanocoating reduces maintenance requirements and enhances the durability of the materials. “Nanocoating is a technology we’ve been perfecting over the years,” explains Martin Cháb, CEO of Sans Souci. “It enhances both the aesthetic and technical properties of the glass, uses minimal material and no water, and supports the recovery of metals and recycling of glass, ensuring the entire process is environmentally conscious.” 

Blending innovation with artistic expression, Sans Souci delivers bespoke lighting solutions that not only enhance the visual appeal of a space but also minimise environmental impact. The lighting installations invite guests into a world of light, beauty and serenity at the hotel.
