From intricate light fixtures inspired by L.A.'s infamous freeways to billboard-inspired headboards in each guest room reflecting L.A.'s classic beach towns, foothills, car culture and urban scene, the hotel aims to bring a fresh, iconic and elevated perspective of Los Angeles to travelers and locals alike.
