El Segundo Blue Butterfly Mural at Aloft Hotel
Color Dreamers latest mural in Los Angeles Aloft Hotel
We just came back from our amazing journey to California State for Aloft Hotel in El Segundo near the LAX airport. This past week we had the pleasure of working on art for a unique brand of Marriott Hotels, Aloft. The Marriott based brand is reaching new heights by adding art to their hotels and spaces. Hotel art is vital to create real memorable experiences.
Art plays a vital role in enhancing the overall ambiance and guest experience in hotels. From luxurious resorts to boutique accommodations, art has the power to transform a hotel space into a captivating and memorable environment. Hotel art and murals is an excellent way to add vitality and visitor interaction.
For this art piece we were inspired by the El Segundo Blue butterfly.
It is a species of butterfly endemic to Southern California, specifically the coastal dunes of the El Segundo and Manhattan Beach areas.
The butterfly’s life cycle revolves around its host plant, the seacliff buckwheat. This butterfly mural really speaks to the beauty of the area. In this hotel mural we placed 3 distinct butterflies.
INSPIRATION : EL SEGUNDO BLUE BUTTERFLY
The female butterfly lays her eggs on the buckwheat plant, and the caterpillars feed exclusively on its leaves. The buckwheat itself is adapted to thrive in the sandy soil of the coastal dunes and plays a crucial role in the butterfly’s survival.
It is a small butterfly with a wingspan of about 2 centimeters. Conservation measures for the El Segundo butterfly include habitat restoration, protection of remaining dune habitats, and captive breeding programs. The butterfly’s limited range makes it particularly vulnerable to extinction, as any disruption or loss of its habitat can have a severe impact on its survival. Conservation organizations, local communities, and government agencies have collaborated to protect the butterfly and its habitat.
This butterfly mural is more than just another hotel artwork, its speaks volumes on the efforts of conservation and the beauty of our world. Hotel design and art is more that just painting something that people will like, its about creating a memorable moment for visitors that they can really connect to. This hotel art did just that and we were graced by one onlooker with a bottle of champagne upon completion of our butterfly mural because she felt that it resonated with her new company launch which actually has a blue butterfly logo. It was truly special gift of celebration.
The importance of Art in Hotels is clear. Differentiation and Branding: In a competitive hospitality industry, art and murals can be a key differentiator for hotels. Unique and thoughtfully curated art collections can distinguish a property from its competitors, making it more memorable in the minds of guests. Hotels can align their art choices with their brand identity, reinforcing their values and creating a distinct identity.

We love to unite beautiful architecture with art. The impressive way that art can be integrated into buildings really brings a new meaning to monumental art forms. The hospitality industry such as hotels and restaurants really benefit from adding art and design to their buildings. It’s great to be part of a new collection of art for Marriott Hotels.
Murals can really add a striking aesthetic to any space. If you are interested in a mural or art for your development, hotel or a hospitality project reach out to us.
