We’re pleased to share that our design for Cannon Beach Hotel in Mesa, Arizona has now achieved DRB approval.
Envisioned as the premiere hospitality destination within the Cannon Beach development, the hotel was designed to balance adventure and restoration, drawing from nostalgic coastal references while creating a calm, refined architectural presence in the Arizona desert.
The design emphasizes clean, intentional forms, warm materiality, and a thoughtful arrival sequence that evokes the feeling of moving under a coastal boardwalk promenade. Stone, wood, glass, and board-formed concrete come together to create a timeless, tactile façade rooted in natural texture.
The hotel is planned to become a Tapestry Collection by Hilton, and as ownership takes the project forward, we wish them every success in bringing this destination hotel to life.
