Howard Hughes ‘A’ali’i Residential Tower at Ward Center | Rottet Studio /  by Ethan Tweedie

Here are some images from my recent photo shoot for Rottet Studio and Howard Hughes at Ward Center in Honolulu. The purpose of the photoshoot was to photograph the showroom which was built for pre-sales of the units in ‘A’ali‘i and showcase Rottet Studio’s design elements.

‘A‘ali‘i stands as a center-point of Ward Village, a community that’s redefining Hawaii’s modern lifestyle. Architectural Digest recently named Ward Village the best master planned community in the U.S. because of its attention to art, architecture and building community. Here, you can spend less time in traffic and more time doing what you love in a centrally located, pedestrian-friendly neighborhood within walking distance of Downtown Honolulu, Oahu’s best shopping, and Ala Moana Beach Park.

Four Seasons Hualalai Golf Hale /  by Ethan Tweedie

The Golf Hale is a brand new state of the art amenity at the Four Seasons Hualalai that will be used for golf training/coaching, using the latest technology like TrackMan 4 Flight simulation, video analysis and assessment of biomechanics using TPI golf fitness performance.  If you are not a budding golf pro there is also a TopGolf Swing Suite Experience and if golf is not your preference you can try zombie dodge ball, soccer, football and baseball games.

The space indoors and outdoors can be used for group events with a large lanai with big screen TVs, indoor bar and snacks. 

The brand new Golf Hale was photographed in January 2020 the week after most of the construction was completed and was designed by GT Design, Inc. and built by GM Construction, Inc. Photography by Ethan Tweedie Photography

Rosewood Mansion on Turtle Creek | Redesigned Suites and Rooms Photography /  by Ethan Tweedie

The stately Mansion on Turtle Creek, a Four-Star Rosewood Hotel and Resort, over the last year renovated and redesigned all of their hotel rooms and suites. As the rooms came on line I would travel to Dallas to spend several days capturing the new spaces, this process took several trips over the last year to accomplish and I am very pleased to be able to share these exquisite rooms, baths and suites.

The project architect was Three Living Architects | Dallas Texas and the interior designer was Thomas Pheasant | Washington D.C.

Rosewood Hotels & Resorts® manages 24 one-of-a-kind luxury properties in 15 countries, with 23 new hotels under development. Each Rosewood hotel embraces the brand’s A Sense of Place® philosophy to reflect the individual location’s history, culture and sensibilities.
