CASE: From Elevator Art Into Elevated Art

RESULTS:

Overview: Lobby Wall Sculpture/ Full Public Space / Full Guestroom For this San Diego nautical themed hotel, we had the privilege of designing everything from the front lobby sculpture to the guestrooms, suites and public spaces. We created and manufactured the stunning front desk wall sculpture from polished stainless steel in gold and silver. It embodies both movement and the mood of the ocean, which is just blocks away. Carrying the theme throughout the hotel we created full-scale wallcoverings in the corridors, and nautical themed framed artwork in the guestrooms and suites. This charming space truly captures the beauty of San Diego.

CASE: Not An Accent, A Focal Point

RESULTS:

Overview: Full Public Space / Full Guestroom This property stands out from the rest because of the vast amount of custom artwork that fills every inch of the hotel. All artwork was created by JVA to follow the Anna May Wong story down to the very last detail. JVA created custom fabric for the lobby sofa made from newspaper articles about the Fiesta de los Flores from the early 1900’s. Historical photos, clippings from movie scripts and custom created murals incorporating Anna’s story touch every surface. JVA had the pleasure of adorning all areas of this property- lobbies, restaurants, guestrooms, suites, restrooms, all public areas and even selected public area accessories. As guests approach the lobby elevators they are entertained by an animated digital "flip book" motion wall, which brings to life some of the vintage parade route characters of the Fiesta de los Flores. Every space has a piece of history tied into it. Step onto one of the elevator cabs, and the large scale graphics will transport you back to the times of secret doors to 1920's Speakeasies, with champagne bubbles on the ceiling. The artwork and design create a truly enchanting experience that will read like a story book to anyone who stays at this hotel.
