WEST HOLLYWOOD DESIGN DISTRICT

Nestled at the base of the Hollywood Hills, between California's iconic coastline and the historic heart of downtown Los Angeles, the West Hollywood Design District stands as the premier cultural hub of the West Coast. With over 250 showrooms, boutiques, galleries, salons, restaurants, and cafés, it offers a dynamic blend of cutting-edge design, luxury fashion, and haute cuisine. From high-end interior design to avant-garde couture, trends begin here, setting the stage for the latest in global creativity.

Since its inception in 1949, the area—encompassing Melrose Avenue, Beverly Boulevard, and Robertson Boulevard—has been a gathering place for visionaries and cultural pioneers from around the world. The district's walkable streets have become a vibrant epicenter for the creative elite.

As actor Billy Zane aptly puts it, “West Hollywood is responsible for developing the foundational elements of all design. Its hub-like destination hosts the world’s most influential creative community, making it the singular most innovative Design District globally.”

In 2024, we celebrate the legacy of design that has shaped this dynamic district, honoring both those who laid its foundations and the visionaries who continue to push boundaries, ensuring that West Hollywood remains at the forefront of creativity and innovation.
