Written by Kirsten Nicholas | Jun 28, 2016 8:57:25 PM

Mid-century architecture mingles with contemporary aesthetics in this boutique design hotel located in the historical metropolis of El Paso. A unique blend of Mexican and American culture makes the town of El Paso a rich hub of great food, art, and music.

Hotel Indigo El Paso's art collection mixes the city’s history with the spirit of the property's bustling downtown location.The hotel's locale inspired curatorial selections that are innovative, colorful, and obvious reflections of the local joie de vivre. We worked with Curioso to bring together pieces honoring El Paso’s Western Texas roots and modern works from contemporary culture.
