“…the ethereal essence of AKA is to provide a sense of calm for our residents, and one of the ways we achieve that is through a contemporary, minimal design vernacular - shades of white, grays, charcoal - especially with respect to our art by collaborator Austin Kerr - as the pieces not only instill a level of beauty and tranquility , but also allow elements like a purple orchid spray to resonate even more! The art also enhances the gray fabric and black leather furnishings throughout. combined together our guests feel more at home, and at peace being away from home!”
