✨ A labor of love, 148 cubbies, and countless stories!
Olde Naples Hotel
Carefully composed and curated by Brooke & Dani (Papa)nikolaou of Gardner Colby Gallery this custom installation at the newly opened Olde Naples Hotel brings together historical artifacts, local artwork, shells, coral, vintage postcards, and coastal treasures that celebrate the spirit of Naples. 💫
Created in collaboration with the Naples Historical Society Historic Palm Cottage & Museum 🌴 Naples, FL and talented local vendors, each cubby serves as a small window into the people, places, and stories that have shaped our community. The result is a layered, immersive experience that welcomes guests with an immediate sense of history, nostalgia, and place. 🤗
While exploring the hotel, guests will also discover artwork by Gardner Colby Gallery artists, including Kevin Sloan’s imaginative allegorical works lining the guest corridors, Tom Manziano’s expressive beachscape above the fireplace overlooking the courtyard, Tovari’s textured mixed media installation featuring impressions of native Florida foilage in the spa (coming soon), and Elise Remender’s iconic rooftop reproduction of “Tropical Reverie” celebrating vintage coastal leisure. 🤩
