Los Angeles explores architectural evolution and luxury hospitality

Los Angeles continues to serve as a hub for architectural experimentation and luxury hospitality. The Kimpton Everly Hollywood offers a mid-century modern retreat in the heart of the city, featuring floor-to-ceiling windows with views of the Hollywood sign and Griffith Observatory.

Historically, the city has embraced unconventional forms, such as the Streamline Moderne style of the 1930s, which utilized curved windows and aerodynamic shapes to symbolize technological progress and speed. This tradition of ambitious design persists in contemporary projects, such as the new David Geffen Galleries at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), designed by Peter Zumthor, which utilizes flowing forms along Wilshire Boulevard.
