Hotel L'Archipel Seychelles

When Hotel L’Archipel in the Seychelles approached Zebbies Lighting, they had a clear vision: design a lighting scheme that captures the essence of island luxury with locally made craftsmanship at its heart. Here’s how we partnered with them to bring their spaces to life - while solving a few design challenges along the way.

Inspired by the island’s natural palette

We paired woven textures and organic tones with durable fittings. Each piece was chosen to enhance the coastal charm of every space.

Chosen pieces:
Lace Small Natural Pendants – calm and considered beside the bed
Igugu Natural Pendants – warm, textural welcome at the entrance

Scale matters in statement areas

The hotel fell in love with the Isgege Pendant but needed more presence for their staircase. Working with our artisan makers, we delivered a custom oversized version - same beautiful design, made to impress on a larger scale.

Effortless charm for outdoor living

The Igugu Natural Pendants were installed across the alfresco living and dining areas, where open air meets relaxed luxury. Their woven texture and organic form echo the surrounding palms and timber, offering a warm, indirect glow that enhances the space without overpowering the guest experience.

Soft touches where it matters most

In guest rooms, the Lace Small Natural Pendants bring a handcrafted, calming detail to the bedside. Hung low for warmth and intimacy, they provide just enough light for evening reads while adding texture to the room’s design.

The Lace Pendants free up space and add a modern coastal feel.

Subtle safety with sleek design

Placed along the edge of this alfresco space, the Ester Black Bollards offer a clean, modern profile while providing essential lighting for safe evening movement. They frame the area without distracting from the setting.
