Coachella 2026 features the debut of commissions that reflect distinctive creative voices: <em>Visage Brut<\/em> by Andrew Holder and Claus Benjamin Freyinger of <a href=\"https:\/\/theladg.com\/\">The Los Angeles Design Group<\/a> (LADG), <em>Starry Eyes<\/em> by London-based architect <a href=\"https:\/\/ar-k-c.com\/about\/\">Kyriakos Chatziparaskevas<\/a><em>,<\/em> and <em>Maze<\/em> by multi-disciplinary designer <a href=\"https:\/\/sabinemarcelis.com\/\">Sabine Marcelis<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Digesting imagery on social media or via the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/coachella\">livestream<\/a> is one thing. Observing how a portion of the event\u2019s approximately 120,000 daily participants engage with the works at any given time, day or night, leaves a different impression. These are places to dance or rest and recharge. They\u2019re practical landmarks to orient yourself within the dizzyingly sprawling surroundings, as well as rendezvous spots \u2014 and yes, backdrops for photos. In other words, each creation serves multiple purposes and is generally engineered to suit all levels of sobriety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260410_W1_Fri_Coachella_LGerber_012481-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt class=\"wp-image-97624\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260410_W1_Fri_Coachella_LGerber_012481-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260410_W1_Fri_Coachella_LGerber_012481-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260410_W1_Fri_Coachella_LGerber_012481-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260410_W1_Fri_Coachella_LGerber_012481-1-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260410_W1_Fri_Coachella_LGerber_012481-1-2048x1366.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260410_W1_Fri_Coachella_LGerber_012481-1-1920x1281.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%201024%20683%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt class=\"wp-image-97624 lazyload\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%201024%20683%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260410_W1_Fri_Coachella_LGerber_012481-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260410_W1_Fri_Coachella_LGerber_012481-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260410_W1_Fri_Coachella_LGerber_012481-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260410_W1_Fri_Coachella_LGerber_012481-1-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260410_W1_Fri_Coachella_LGerber_012481-1-2048x1366.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260410_W1_Fri_Coachella_LGerber_012481-1-1920x1281.jpg 1920w\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260410_W1_Fri_Coachella_LGerber_012481-1-1024x683.jpg\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lancegerberstudio.com\/\">Lance Gerber<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The process of developing compelling commissions that stand on their own, both individually and collectively, in the freewheeling festival atmosphere has myriad moving parts. \u201cI pay attention to the scene and what people are doing, always keeping an eye out for work and artists who I think can, whether they&#8217;ve worked at this scale or not, have the capacity to make something that&#8217;s iconic,\u201d Lehrer explains.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rethinking and finessing the program in 2016 meant reducing the number of artworks in favor of larger installations built nearby by skilled local crews over many months. As for the criteria, Lehrer looks for \u201ca really distinct elevation and a silhouette that can read from thousands of feet away,\u201d he says. \u201cIt should look good on camera. But first and foremost, work that&#8217;s super esoteric is not what this is about. To me, a work is successful if it can operate on multiple depths.\u201d <em>Spectra<\/em>, the illuminated polychromatic transparent cylindrical tower by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsubstance.co.uk\/\">Newsubstance<\/a> that\u2019s a visual tease from both inside and outside its spiral ramp, became an instant hit upon its 2018 reveal.

The scale is insane,\u201d marvels Marcelis, the Dutch-born, New Zealand-raised artist and designer who, from her Rotterdam studio, has collaborated with brands ranging from IKEA to Celine to<a href=\"https:\/\/calicowallpaper.com\/product\/silhouette\/?srsltid=AfmBOoo2DuDnI0BR8l1eu1XGumrDEuOX7x5lsoYy1PzmjxU34XP2AMs3\"> Calico wallpaper<\/a>. \u201cI wanted to work with a process that would allow me to create a very big impact, but with the smallest amount of material as possible.\u201d The result is akin to if Richard Serra were to ditch weathered steel for desert-hued inflatables so that \u201cair is the main ingredient.\u201d The voids shaped between the pieces produce a labyrinth for users to connect, relax, and discover. \u201cI create so many pieces that go to someone&#8217;s home that I don&#8217;t know. With public space projects, you get direct feedback in real time,\u201d Marcelis observes. When talking about seeing revelers experiencing <em>Maze<\/em>, her enthusiasm is palpable. \u201cThat&#8217;s so cool. Like, look at these people! They&#8217;re really enjoying it.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A brisk walk away stands <em>Starry Eyes<\/em>, Chatziparaskevas\u2019s immersive cluster of 40-foot-tall steel structures that mimic the geometric form of golden barrel cactus. Inspiration from John Lautner\u2019s Bob Hope house in Palm Springs appears in the shape of the occuli that cap each bulbous unit wrapped in an array of dusty desert colors. Come sunset, the volumes glow from within, and a series of motifs, including cactus needles and constellations, are projected onto the surfaces. The LADG\u2019s jagged <em>Visage Brut<\/em> modular tower (fabricated in collaboration with <a href=\"https:\/\/studio-construction.com\/\">Stud-IO Construction<\/a>) opts for a vertical, gravity-defying effect. The team\u2019s environmentally conscious approach is a less visible yet no less important element. \u201cWe set out to generate as little waste as possible. The piece is largely reusable,\u201d says Ben Freyinger, co-principal of the LADG, noting that the larger steel components can be repurposed and other metal parts are recyclable.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260412_W1_Sun_Coachella_LGerber_027458-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt class=\"wp-image-97627\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260412_W1_Sun_Coachella_LGerber_027458-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260412_W1_Sun_Coachella_LGerber_027458-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260412_W1_Sun_Coachella_LGerber_027458-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260412_W1_Sun_Coachella_LGerber_027458-1-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260412_W1_Sun_Coachella_LGerber_027458-1-2048x1366.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260412_W1_Sun_Coachella_LGerber_027458-1-1920x1281.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%201024%20683%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt class=\"wp-image-97627 lazyload\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%201024%20683%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260412_W1_Sun_Coachella_LGerber_027458-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260412_W1_Sun_Coachella_LGerber_027458-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260412_W1_Sun_Coachella_LGerber_027458-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260412_W1_Sun_Coachella_LGerber_027458-1-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260412_W1_Sun_Coachella_LGerber_027458-1-2048x1366.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260412_W1_Sun_Coachella_LGerber_027458-1-1920x1281.jpg 1920w\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.californiahomedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20260412_W1_Sun_Coachella_LGerber_027458-1-1024x683.jpg\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lancegerberstudio.com\/\">Lance Gerber<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Rather than functioning as ephemera, multiple Coachella commissions have been relocated to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DWkJvvbkiaU\/?img_index=1\">permanent locations<\/a> around the region.
