The Lenox guesthouse in Cape Town’s Gardens district is undergoing a transformation into a boutique hotel and artist residency by French organization MEMORIST. The project aims to host up to nine artists from South Africa, Africa, and France, providing an arena for artistic creation and showcase, and a cultural immersion experience for its visitors. Newmark will manage the Lenox as an artcentric boutique hotel, with communal spaces invigorated by the artwork of inresidence artists, offering guests a distinctive blend of art and hospitality. The project is set to welcome the public in 2026.
