We’re proud to share that 1 Hotel Melbourne at Seafarers has been recognised at the Australasia Pacific Hotel Design Awards, receiving both the 2026 Paul Davis Award for Excellence in Hotel Design & Innovation and Hotel of the Year (New Build).
Our brief for this project was simple: provide an elegant architectural lighting solution that feels calm, warm and deeply considered; to support a wellness-led experience, and to aesthetically integrate lighting into the storied architecture. Reflecting the 1 Hotel ethos of sustainability and calm, Aglo worked closely with Glowing Structures to layer light through timber-lined volumes and tactile finishes, guiding movement and atmosphere.
Thank you to 1 Hotel Melbourne, Riverlee Group, Glowing Structures, FK Australia , and ODO for the opportunity to contribute to this landmark project. A truly collaborative effort, and one we’re very proud to see recognised!
