Infamously known as the "Riot Hyatt" in its rock-n-roll glory days, the newly renovated Sunset-strip hotel exudes simplistic, yet stylish design to emulate the vibrant Hollywood culture. As Executive Architect, SAA directed the renovation and upgrade of the lobby and guest rooms, as well as a complete redesign of the restaurant. Hyatt Hotels Corporation re-opened as Andaz West Hollywood in January, 2009.
