Escape Los Angeles is a California-born sibling to Escape Brooklyn — a travel and design platform exploring the West. Focused on distinctive hotels, culture, and wide-open landscapes across California and the Southwest, it highlights the places where architecture meets nature and where design drives experience.
Launched in 2020, the platform has featured desert escapes, coastal road trips, and design-forward stays throughout California — each story photographed and produced with the same editorial sensibility that shaped Escape Brooklyn.
As its westward chapter continues to evolve, Escape LA remains a foundation for future work and inspiration across the region — reconnecting with creative communities, showcasing stays, and celebrating the spirit of exploration out West.
Below, find a mix of select photography and promo pieces that capture the vibe of Escape LA.
