LAX’s Terminal 6 Inspired by Sunset Boulevard

Soon visitors to Los Angeles International Airport won’t need to leave the airport to experience some of the city’s most iconic architecture and scenery.

The inspiration for the new décor in LAX’s revamped Terminal 6 — designed by Westfield Airports — is Sunset Boulevard, the 22-mile road that travels through downtown Los Angeles, Hollywood, Beverly Hills and eventually to the Pacific Ocean. The interior of the terminal pulls influence from both the inner-city aura of downtown and the lush gardens and natural scenes of West Hollywood, Beverly Hills and beyond.

The present day Terminal 6 comprises a space of nearly 23,000 square feet with 21 new restaurants and shops, including an eatery by celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck called The Marketplace. Top Chef contestant Fabio Viviani also holds stake in the terminal with his Osterio restaurant. Blu2o is a centrally located illuminated bar where guests can pull up a white bar chair and enjoy cocktails and cappuccinos of the future.

With authentic California cuisine and décor, Terminal 6 truly encompasses the glamorous aspects of the City of Angels.

Choose Your Own Island Vibe in French Polynesia

“We are on small, tiny rocks, isolated in the middle of the largest ocean.” On a nature tour on the atoll of Tetiaroa, my naturalist guide, Thierry Sommers, thus reminded me of the oceanic remoteness of our location in the South Pacific. I was staying at The Brando, a luxurious private island resort that sits a mere 30-minute flight from the main island of Tahiti but still feels gloriously far away from regular civilization.
