Downtown L.A. is at present playing host to the first-ever howdy Kitty conference, the cherished Sanrio character who’s definitely no longer a cat. In honor of the party, hiya Kitty Con‘s respectable hotel associate, the road hotel, has decked out a few of its rooms in full howdy Kitty regalia from interior clothier Sean Knibb.
As a part of howdy Kitty’s 40th-anniversary social gathering, select rooms and a VIP lounge had been transformed into plush red shrines to the uber-cute Sanrio persona in what can simplest be described as a preteen Japanophile’s wildest dream come to life. (Or possibly the set to Avril Lavigne’s next music video.) The rooms, offered as a “super sweet stay package,” are”stuffed with supercute surprises,” in step with the lodge.
but the VIP lounge, situated in one of the vital resort’s suites, is the real treat. This insane altar to one of Japan’s biggest popular culture exports comprises genius inside design choices like good day Kitty toilet paper and Band-Aids lining the walls, miniature hello Kitty stuffed toys adorning the bathroom self-importance, and a quilt made up of even bigger stuffed hi there Kitty toys.
one of the most Line’s hip boutique touches remain. uncovered concrete walls are splattered with just a little crimson. A bathroom stall is adorned with a pretend-punk graffiti, handiest a few of which is cat-associated (geographic references like “Wilshire” and “KTown” seem next to extra on-theme scribbles like “Meow”).
One factor is bound. This spectacle of fierce kawaii fandom has to be seen to be believed. regrettably, the rooms are all bought out. however all hotel company can benefit from the lounge–at least except hiya Kitty’s exclusive birthday bash begins on Saturday.
