Located in Santa Monica, CA, the Shore Hotel, replaces two aging oceanfront motels with a modern, 90,000-square-foot, four-level hotel with 164 stylishly appointed guestrooms. As guests enter the hotel, they are presented with a signature lobby design that draws from the surrounding environment, highlighted by walls of Indian sandstone with a hand-crafted wave pattern.
According to Fong Liu, Senior Associate at Gensler, the design inspiration for the project “drew from the property’s location, where the oceanfront landscape meets the unique urban fabric of Santa Monica.”
