Hotel Adeline
Hotel Adeline was originally developed in 1970 as a short stay motor lodge. To preserve the historic structure, the design team reimagined the property as a mid-century modern styled boutique hotel. Preservation of the existing structures, courtyard space and existing mature vegetation were set as design tenets for re-imagining the property. As a result, site planning efforts to incorporate drought tolerant plant material, locally sourced materials and efficient irrigation systems were incorporated as integral components of the overall design.
