Text description provided by the architects. We believe that good designs come from research and exploration, it’s something that develops from within the physical and social contexts of a place. New Orleans is a city brimming with stories. It’s the birthplace of Jazz. It’s where the first cocktail was invented. It’s the stage for novels ranging from A Confederacy of Dunces to Interview with the Vampire. It’s where tarot reading and dark arts thrive. We discovered the city has these fantastic undercurrents wherein stories brew. At the W French Quarter, these mysterious undercurrents which create the social fabric of the city itself are the very basis of our design.
