An urban vibe melds with Southern California’s relaxed culture in the newly revitalized Hotel MdR Marina del Rey, a Doubletree by Hilton. Los Angeles-based Indidesign led this redesign.

In the lobby, a blend of organic and high-tech materials connects to the idea of sailing, the beach, and sunrises.

Connecting to the site and capturing the spirit of the local lifestyle was just as important in the hotel’s signature restaurant, Barbianca Local Kitchen.

Indidesign’s lighting concept includes custom overhead lamps, recessed lighting in the ceiling, and natural light from the outdoors.

To recall sailing life, porthole-like windows are situated above a fabric-covered banquette.

Gray, cement-like flooring is blended with deep yellow and dark navy accent hues and wood tones throughout Barbianca.

Large custom graphics, inspired by urban living by the beach, create dreamy backdrops to the space.

The use of color blocking and bold graphics completes the restaurant’s indoor-outdoor feel.

Barbianca’s urban-inspired open floor plan blurs the line between indoor and outdoor.

Outfitted with tree lights, area rugs, and layered lighting, the outdoor living room can morph into a different space depending on the time of day.
