The Bond Hotel & Residences

The Bond Hotel & Residences is a planned mixed-use complex from West Hollywood-based Faring, designed by Kevin Tsai Architecture for a site at 7811 Santa Monica Boulevard with frontage on Orange Grove Avenue and Ogden Drive, a 7-story building with 126 residences and 45 hotel keys.

A series of seven-story buildings arranged around a central courtyard would hold 45 boutique hotel rooms and 126 studio to three-bedroom apartments, 20 of them affordable, above a 4,473-square-foot ground-floor restaurant and a two-level, 104-car garage. Warm vertical wood screens and deep-set window frames define the facades. The project replaces the existing buildings on the site, including the Brick Fitness gym, in the eastern stretch of West Hollywood's main commercial corridor.
