Franco Albini & Franca Helg

The iconic wedge-shaped MLC building on the corner of Auckland's Queen and Airedale Street has been fully restored by the Scenic Hotel Group with help from Context Architects. The Astep Le Sfere Model 2019 chandelier was selected as a bold lighting statement for the foyer.

In design, Albini and Helg have linked their name to timeless furnishings and accessories, innovative in their design approach and in the choice of materials. Their production represents an internationally recognized cornerstone of the innovation of design culture at the beginning of the twentieth century.
