Sandwiched between the Lot Movie Studio, the Oprah Winfrey Network headquarters, and the Formosa Café, a new mixed-use development will offer residents easy walkability and access to some of West Hollywood’s most frequented destinations. Domain West Hollywood, designed by Studio One Eleven, offers 166 residential units on top of 9,000 sf of ground-floor retail at 7141 Santa Monica Blvd.
The development features a three-story portal entry along Santa Monica Boulevard that is clad in bright red panels to echo the design of the neighboring red Formosa Café across the street.

Jonathan Adler, an interior design firm, curated the units with an emphasis on echoing the old Hollywood glamour style. Malika Favre, a French artist, created minimal, illustrative designs used throughout the building that added to the desired old Hollywood glamour look.
Yummy.com, a grocery store delivery service, is the development’s first confirmed retail tenant.
