Found in LA’s Koreatown, The Line Hotel is the collaborative work of the Sydell Group, Sean Knibb, Roy Choi, The Houston Brothers, and Poketo. The mid-century building dates back to 1964, when it was originally designed by Daniel, Mann, Johnson & Mendenhall. Today, the renovated space boasts 388 hotel rooms, two restaurants, a bar and lounge, and an art retailer. Designed by Sean Knibb, the rooms themselves welcome guests with huge windows, concrete walls, and retro-chic furniture that shouts LA.
