Eight Rooms: Agostino Iacurci at Principal Place Plaza, London

Agostino Iacurci piece for Principal Place, an office building in Shoreditch and home to Amazon HQ, was unveiled this week.

“Eight Rooms” is a stunning 30-meters-long artwork printed on vinyl that perches on Principal Place Plaza’s street level and features eight dream-like snapshots. Depicted in Agostino’s signature flat shapes and bold colours, the piece brings together a pop vibe and a delightful, playful touch that won’t go unnoticed by the public.

Known as one of London’s most vibrant and creative areas, Shoreditch is a lively hub where culture and art meet. After London’s 2020 dramatic lockdown, Brookfield Properties commissioned Iacurci the large-scale mural to give tenants, local workers, residents, and art-lovers across the City the chance to experience the arts up close.

In the words of Patricia Armocida, “Agostino Iacurci works have a style that is unmistakable, recognisable and simply poetic” and “Eight Rooms” contributes to creating in Principal Place a space for much needed personal reflection and social connection.
