This thirteen room boutique hotel, called Hotel Seven4One in Laguna Beach, California, was recently renovated and remodeled by the local firm of Horst Architects.The facade is composed of reclaimed wood, Corten steel and a two-story green wall. The reclaimed wood was salvaged from buildings being demolished in east LA which were built in the early 1900?s. Corten steel adds both an earthly quality and the patina of time. The two-story green wall reflects the ardent hills that embrace this seaside community, as well as an interest in sustainability among its residents.
