More about the exhibit:
Initially conceived to celebrate Louis Vuitton’s bicentennial birthday, this ambitious homage heads onward from Singapore, welcoming a new wave of visitors to experience an ephemeral presentation space and discover the creations up close. From its debut in Asnières at the Louis Vuitton family house to a contemporary classical building on North Rodeo Drive near the Beverly Hills flagship, the exhibition has been adapted to reflect a local spirit with exclusive rooms dedicated to the Brooklyn Balloon Company by Robert Moy and Jwan Yosef.
The LOUIS 200 project invited a mosaic of talents and friends spanning arts and culture, the sciences, sports, global causes and more to each personalize a metaphorical blank canvas measuring approximately the same dimensions of the original trunk that Louis conceived in the 1850s. This invitation yielded 200 extraordinary transformations: vessels transmitting dreams and desires, abstract concepts and artistic expressions. Among the familiar names: BTS, Supreme, Peter Marino, Lego, Liu Wei, Cao Fei and Fornasetti.
More about the Roof Garden:
The Roof Garden is a lush, skylit escape atop one of Beverly Hills' most prestigious addresses. The menu features a fusion of California classics with delightful flavors from around the globe. The culinary team incorporates fresh, hyper-local ingredients into dishes highlighted by herbs and vegetables grown in the hotel’s garden. Accented by its iconic yellow and white striped umbrellas, and a favorite among area residents and hotel guests alike, the rooftop bar offers a curated selection of wine, champagne, and imported beer, plus a collection of handcrafted signature cocktails.
