Created by Joseph Sidof and his team of artisans and technicians, these bespoke statement pieces at the iconic Capital One Lounge in JFK Terminal 4 showcase the artistry of Shakúff. We created these installations in close collaboration with the design team at Gensler, CA and New York, and the Capital One Design team, transforming the lounge into a warm and inspiring destination for travelers.

Suspended above the bar, a dramatic chandelier installation features over 2,000 hand-blown glass pieces and brass metal spheres, each meticulously shaped using the unique techniques of skilled artisans to achieve a branch-like, blooming effect. Custom frosted glass and a brushed brass finish were carefully selected to complement the lounge’s sophisticated palette. Incorporating advanced LED technology, the chandelier is suspended by five rods, enhancing the bar’s visual appeal while creating an inviting glow for guests.

In the main seating area, a sculptural installation composed of 600 hand-blown crystal rock glass pendants captures the essence of fluidity and elegance. Custom Pantone colors—South Peak, Long Weekend, and Brown Accent—were chosen to harmonize with the lounge’s contemporary aesthetic. Mounted on sleek mono-point grippers, the composition draws the eye toward the runway views and creates a warm, welcoming atmosphere for travelers to unwind and recharge.
