An awe-inspiring work of art is now ready to adorn the reception of The CHEDI Hegra: an imposing chandelier crafted from ancient train rails.

Designed by @gioforma in collaboration with @_blackengineering_ , this monumental piece tells a story of connection and legacy.

The train rails wind through the epic landscape of AIUIa, reimagined into an artistic form that bridges the past and the present – a piece of the past that illuminates the future.

A true celebration of history, innovation, and the timeless beauty of AlUla.
