HansonLA’s proposal for 1220 Hermosa adds a boutique hotel above two restaurants and a surface parking lot in Hermosa Beach. The second-story construction stitches three commercial parcels by simultaneously respecting the existing conditions and filling a gap in the community fabric. The design for the project takes advantage of the property’s siting, only one block from the Hermosa Beach Pier, with a courtyard organization. Each of its ten rooms and a rooftop bar opens to a central garden, featuring largescale colorful plantings and ocean breezes.
