“The inspiration for the design and identity of this project came from the well-known and lesser-known history of Hollywood and Burbank.

Hearing stories about Hotel Amarano’s legacy from hotel ownership and management reminded our HBA Los Angeles team of Hollywood’s infamous Garden of Allah, a discreet hotel/home owned by the 1920s silent movie actress Alla Nazimova. Working in tandem with our branding firm, HBA Strategy, we pursued the idea of creating a ‘home’ personified by a fictional muse and gracious host named Amara, which translates to ‘grace, mercy, and kindness.”

— Richard Tennill, Partner, HBA Los Angeles
