As part of Riviera’s Design Series Casa Surf Project, Eve Lowey of Studio Chameleon joined forces with former world champion skateboarder and owner of etnies Pierre Andre Senizergues on a signature Skate Room. Hailing back to its roots in skateboarding and all that encompasses the culture, the movement, curves and shapes in the design of the room reflect the passion of etnies.

Highlights include the Chicken’s bowl sink, shoe scrap headboard, reversed shadow box wheel mirror, skate free mini bar, “Graffiti Malibu” art piece and an original art creation by Mike Manzoori titled “It’s Not Where You’re Going, It’s How You Get There.” The room also offers an eco twist on design, reviving discarded items and ultimately spreading a message of lightening your eco impact, one footprint at a time.

The ocean view hotel room is located in Laguna Beach, California in Casa Del Camino Hotel, and will open to rent starting this weekend. And that’s not all. For the first year of room rentals, La Casa Del Camino Hotel is giving a portion of the room rate to etnies charity of choice: Global Green, USA. Go PAS!

10 years ago Simon Woodruffe starte Yo!Sushi, which became a huge success. His latest venture is Yotel, a new hotel concept, based on the Japanese capsule idea, to be situated at airports worldwide.
The hotels have a calm design and offer everything a big hotel does, only on a compact scale. The entrepreneur wanted his staff to look at stylish and cutting edge as their working environment. Part of the hotels staff uniform became this new New Balance 576.
New Balance does not do collaborations, mostly you would see shoes made specifically for stores. The shoe was matched the rest of the hotel staff uniform – navy blue, purple and cream, finished off with a Yotel branded lace lock.
The New Balance x Yotel sneaker is not released to the general public and you can only get your hands on it if you actually work for Yotel. It will be interesting to see what ways sneaker collectors will find to get their hands on these.
