Backlit Elevator Shaft Wall

Private Residence | Nassau, Bahamas

We’re proud to share our latest installation, completed within the stunning setting of Albany Marina in Nassau, Bahamas. This one-of-a-kind, three-story residential elevator features a DURA-Lite™ translucent, glass-backed onyx shaft wall, illuminated by the Infuse™ Complete LED Backlighting System. The surface—Old Princess White stone from Iran—has been expertly thinned and laminated to glass, creating a glowing vertical feature rich with depth and character.

This luminous centerpiece was part of a full custom structural system, with supervisory and installation services provided by our team. The result is a dramatic focal point that transforms the elevator shaft into a glowing art installation, offering a breathtaking view as one rides the transparent cab through the various levels of this luxurious Bahamas residence.

A heartfelt thank you to Stephen Hruby of Architects Unlimited for your trust and collaboration, and to the exceptional team at SAJO: Adrian Tedeschi, Diego Di Sabatino, Sean Hanrahan, and Brandyn and Jessica Cassidy. It’s been a pleasure working with your talented group, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the final result.
