About Artsake.
Art That Elevates Spaces.
Artsake partners with the hospitality, corporate, healthcare, multifamily, and senior living industries to create thoughtfully curated art programs that transform interiors into memorable spaces.
Our approach combines creative direction, architectural understanding, and efficient project execution to deliver gallery-quality artwork at a scale and price point that makes exceptional design accessible.
We take the time to understand the story behind every project, its design vision, intended audience, and the experience it aims to create. From there, we curate artwork collections that feel authentic to the space and bring its personality to life. We then manufacture each piece to gallery-quality standards and deliver a finished product that’s ready to become part of the built environment.

CLIO HONIG.
With a background in fine arts from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Belgium, Clio leads the creative vision behind every Artsake collection. She combines a strong understanding of art, composition, color, and visual storytelling with a sensitivity to how artwork functions within an interior. Working closely with a network of artists, photographers, and creatives, she develops collections that feel sophisticated, timeless, and commercially relevant. Her approach balances artistic expression with the needs of designers, developers, and hospitality projects to create memorable, cohesive spaces.
GABRIEL KAKON.
Gabriel's background in architecture and industrial design, together with founding the internationally recognized New York lighting studio Gabriel Scott, has given him a deep understanding of the architecture and design industry. Having collaborated with architects, interior designers, and developers on luxury projects for years, he brings an intuitive understanding of design language, construction processes, and the role artwork plays in completing a space. His experience ensures every Artsake collection is thoughtfully curated to complement both the design vision and the practical realities of commercial projects.
The best artwork doesn't just decorate a space, it gives it a personality.
Our Process.
From Concept to Delivery.
Every project follows a proven process that balances creativity, efficiency, and scalability. Whether sourcing artwork for a single amenity space or hundreds of guest rooms, our team manages every stage from concept to final delivery.
Discovery &
Creative Direction.
Every project begins with understanding the property's architecture, brand identity, target demographic, and design objectives.
Working alongside owners, designers, and project teams, we establish a creative direction tailored specifically to the space.
Curation &
Presentation.
Our designers curate artwork collections that complement the interior design while meeting project budgets and timelines.
Artwork layouts, sizing recommendations, and presentation materials allow stakeholders to confidently visualize the finished environment before production begins.
Artwork Development.
Whether developing original artwork, curating photography, or creating custom compositions, every collection begins with the project's creative direction.
Our studio develops concepts tailored to the space, collaborating with artists and creatives to produce exclusive collections that complement the architecture, interior design, and overall vision of each project.
Production.
Every artwork is professionally manufactured using premium materials suited to the medium and project. Canvas works are printed on cotton canvas with HP Latex inks, hand-stretched over hardwood bars, with optional hardwood framing. Photographic works are printed on UV-resistant photo paper and finished behind crystal-clear acrylic for a clean, gallery-quality presentation.
Logistics & Delivery.
Artwork is manufactured, quality inspected, packaged, and delivered project-ready.
Our team coordinates shipments to align with construction schedules, renovations, phased installations, and opening dates, minimizing disruption throughout the project.
Meet the Founders.
Thoughtfully Curated. Expertly Crafted.
Our founders discuss the ideas that shape every Artsake project, from thoughtful curation and timeless design to creating artwork that feels authentic to both the space and the people who experience it.
How did Artsake begin?
Gabriel: Throughout my experience in architecture and design, I realized that while every project has its own vision, many artwork programs end up feeling interchangeable. We created Artsake to change that. By taking the time to understand the architecture, interiors, brand, and people a space is designed for, we're able to curate collections that feel distinctive, intentional, and uniquely suited to each project.
Clio: We never want artwork to feel like an afterthought or simply fill empty walls. Every collection should feel like it belongs, reinforcing the personality of the project and helping tell its story. That's why we thoughtfully curate from our ever-growing collection of original artwork, while introducing custom pieces whenever a project calls for something truly unique.
What makes Artsake different?
Gabriel: What sets Artsake apart is our approach to relevance. Every piece should feel like it belongs, complementing the space, the people using it, and the overall experience the project is meant to create.
Clio: Rather than chasing trends or creating art that's difficult to interpret, we focus on collections that are timeless, approachable, and full of character, pieces people naturally connect with.
What types of projects do you specialize in?
Gabriel: Hospitality, multifamily developments, offices, healthcare, senior living, and residential communities. Whether a boutique project or a national rollout, our process scales to fit the project.
How do you curate a collection?
Clio: Every collection begins with understanding the overall design direction. We look at the mood the space is trying to create, the people who will experience it, and how artwork can reinforce both. The goal is always to curate a collection that feels authentic, cohesive, and naturally connected to its surroundings.
Do you offer custom artwork?
Clio: Absolutely. Many projects require exclusive collections, customized color palettes, or artwork developed around a specific brand or story. Our creative team works closely with clients to develop pieces that feel unique to their property.
How do you determine artwork sizes?
Gabriel: Proper scale is one of the most important aspects of successful artwork placement. We provide sizing recommendations and layout guidance to ensure each piece complements the surrounding architecture and furnishings.
Why aren't the artworks individually signed?
Clio: Artsake operates as a collaborative creative studio. Every collection represents the combined efforts of our designers, artists, and creative team, making the work a reflection of the studio rather than a single artist.
Can you assist throughout the project?
Gabriel: Absolutely. While our involvement often begins during the design phase, our support doesn't end there. We continue to assist throughout production, logistics, installation planning, and any challenges that arise, helping ensure a smooth process from concept to completion.
