Gold Leaf Christmas Award
Leonardo Royal Hotel Southampton Grand Harbour
Ambius UK
The client wanted a big display scene with matching decor to compliment their Great Gatsby Christmas theme for 2023. They wanted a ‘selfie scene’, they wanted big trees. The client wanted the displays to still look traditional but feel very contemporary and match the theme of the rest of the hotel with the other decorations, making their guests know Christmas was here and wow!!
This Christmas installation deserves to be an award winning entry because of the sheer size of the designs and finished product and the reaction it’s had from both the client and the client’s guests. People were taking selfies and photos, commenting on the designs as soon as the displays were up.
The colours and decorations used fit so well with the client’s chosen theme for 2023; in their ballroom as well as throughout the rest of the hotel and restaurant area as well as outside, their spa area. From the 15ft trees to the garlands on the rails, or the sparkly feathers on the decorations and trees, the client was over the moon with how it all came to life.
We’re very proud of this design and especially the reaction from the customer. It certainly makes all the work worthwhile.
This was a large installation to do in a short time, not so much because of the amount of items to put up and display, but because of the bespoke nature of the displays and limited time to do it all.The team worked over the weekend and early mornings to try not to disrupt the guests at the hotel as well as the staff.
The design fitted perfectly with their Great Gatsby Christmas theme for 2023. Guests were taking photos and selfies immediately.

The client was ecstatic and very pleased with the finished display which was a very bespoke design for them but still with traditional elements to suit all the different areas in the hotel.
The colours, the decorations, everything aligned perfectly with their theme for the festive period. Straight away, the client was planning for next Christmas and what else they could do. It was a very bespoke design for the customer but still with traditional elements to suit the different areas in the hotel.
