Robert Edmonds describes his firm’s work as “architectural plastic surgery.” That’s an apt description for the commission Edmonds + Lee undertook at Hotel Diva, which entailed putting the 116-key locale through a $2 million face-lift that included creating a tuxedo-like appearance on its front façade. Edmonds’ firm, which he co-founded in 2005 with his wife, architect Vivian Lee, specializes in on high-end residential projects. Its work on the Diva is Edmonds + Lee’s first hotel assignment; for more on how that came about, see page 14.
Yvonne Lembi-Detert says her first job, at age 16, was as a gas attendant at a Chevron station, “just to prove a woman could do it.” A strong personality herself, Lembi-Detert founded the Personality Hotels boutique chain at age 22. Her company now includes of four eclectic properties (Hotel Diva, Hotel Union Square, Kensington Park Hotel and Steinhart Hotel) all within walking distance of San Francisco’s famed Union Square. LembiDetert recently teamed with architect Robert Edmonds to renovate Hotel Diva.
A 20-year design veteran, including a six-year stint at Michael Graves and Associates, Joshua Zinder’s portfolio includes such wide-ranging projects as The Museum of the Shenandoah Valley, a prototype for Wyndham Hotels, a television studio for MTI and a U.S. Courthouse in Nashville, Tenn. Zinder, who launched his firm in 2006, has also designed roughly a dozen restaurants for Las Vegas Sands Corp. The latest is the Sky on 57 atop the Marina Bay Sands’ resort in Singapore, which is profiled in the sector spotlight on restaurants that starts on page 26.
