Following the interior design concept of the building, the ceiling sculpture that is suspended in the Lobby of The Selby is intended to remind the residents of the storied history of the site and the presence of the historic Gooderham home. The interior design concept is to create a timeless, hybrid aesthetic that is at once traditional and modern, literal and abstract, conceived as a means of seamlessly blending old and new.
As co-founders of Gooderham and Worts Distillery, currently known as the Distillery District, the ceiling sculpture is an abstraction or reinterpretation of a distillery still, the livelihood of the Gooderham family. By deconstructing the common still, conceptually “peeling and pulling”; the result is a new form that inspires wonder through its complexity and detail, adding another dimension that allows one to view the exterior and interior of the “still” simultaneously.
