Hollywood Tower

Once a bustling residence that housed film luminaries such as Marilyn Monroe, Humphrey Bogart & Charlie Chaplin, the Hollywood Tower is now a stunning apartment building and one of my favorite landmarks in Los Angeles. 

Why? The phenomenal design of course!  This building has some of the most gorgeous design & style I have seen (I am a little biased because the inspiration is Hollywood’s Golden Age- my favorite era).  However, anyone can appreciate this gorgeous space.  













The colors are just right, all those rich plums, bright greens and blues, along with luxurious gold and white accents. & I love the whimsical design of the roof top terrace (did you notice the life size chess board!)


Originally built in 1929, the French-Norman architecture embodies glamour, romance, mystery & fine craftsmanship.  Everything I adore!
