CROSS Life Hakata Tenjin showcases artwork inspired by the Hakata and Tenjin areas, displayed throughout the lobby, hallways, and other spaces. These pieces go beyond decoration, fostering a deeper connection to the region’s culture and history from the moment guests step inside. This aligns with the hotel’s design concept, “My 3rd Place,” which emphasizes creating a comfortable and personal retreat.

The art is crafted mainly by local artists and creators from Fukuoka. For instance, Ryohei Yamashita, known for his dynamic themes, has created a wall painting inspired by the Hakata Gion Yamakasa Festival. The reception area features lanterns also themed around this iconic festival. Other pieces include art panels graphically depicting landmarks such as Suikyo Tenmangu Shrine and Nakasu, adding a modern, sophisticated touch to the space.
