Hotel Maya is claimed to be the first distinctive full-service, luxury boutique hotel which fuses the essence of Latin American resort and modern So. CA. how fusion is that!
Andy and crew are now busy working with Wabi on Fuego at Hotel Maya - Long Beach's newest waterfront restaurant and bar which is opening on July 1, 2009. Woo hoo~
Finally we have a design team - Arya Group that appreciates this striking red color I initiated as special color for Wabi - #201A Ichigo. You may know Ichigo actually means strawberry and this color totally brings liveliness to the premise. Uncomplicated, only 3 colors are being used in this job - Wabi plain color which is very light grey for the ceilings, Wabi #13 which is subtle mix of beige and grey and Wabi #201A for the wall. Such a brilliant contrast between subtle Juraku colors and bright red. They fuse well, don't you think?
So Red!
We are all excited and anxious to see the outcome. And we believe we can see so much essence of Wabi Sabi in this job. Can't wait til the opening of Fuego in July! I was told it will be "THE" place for fun celebration in downtown long beach... Do share with us and send by email if you have some nice photos of this restaurant later on!
Thanks Derek for sharing these photos!
The long awaited Feugo restaurant @ Hotel Maya is finally open in July.
The entire setting looks fabulous.
The Black Sumba pebble-washed floor coupled wit Wabi 201(Ichigo) wall and Wabi 13(Kuju) ceilings give a harmonious blend of natural products.
