BHAM NOW • DEC 2021
When The Kelly Hotel opened its doors in downtown Birmingham, original artwork played an important role in shaping the property's distinctive identity and guest experience. In its preview of the new boutique hotel, Bham Now highlights the vibrant interiors, curated design elements, and creative vision behind one of the city's newest hospitality destinations.
Developed by Rhaglan Hospitality and part of Hilton's Tapestry Collection, The Kelly was designed to blend historic architectural character with bold contemporary style. Throughout the hotel, original paintings, sculptures, and mixed media works by Tony Mose and Tracey Mose contribute to the property's layered and eclectic aesthetic. From the colorful lobby spaces to thoughtfully curated guest areas, the artwork helps reinforce the hotel's bold personality and sense of place.
The Kelly remains a standout example of how original artwork can enhance hospitality environments, creating memorable experiences for guests while reflecting the character of the destination itself.
