The NoMI Kitchen, Lounge and
Garden on the seventh floor of
Park Hyatt Chicago is where the
city’s well-heeled crowd come
together for exemplary meals and
unforgettable soirees. Chef Satoru
Takeuchi’s seasonal menu focusses
on American classics created with
top-notch produce, such as sea
urchin from Santa Barbara and
milk-fed pork from Wisconsin. The
tiger roll with snow crab and Bigeye
spicy tuna are as outstanding as
the breathtaking views of Lake
Michigan. NoMI Garden also
supplies fresh ingredients, such
as detoxifying Akati tea leaves, for
exclusive treatments at the spa.AMERICAN EPICUREAN ODYSSEY
Rauschenberg’s Tropicana/Channel and
Gerhard Richter’s Domplatz Mailand. Leading
in through the corridors, guest rooms, spa and
restaurants are other black-and-white artworks,
commissioned by the hotel in association with
Staci Boris, who is the associate curator for
Chicago’s Museum of Contemporary Art.
PARK HYATT TOKYO
Park Hyatt Tokyo’s interior design begins at
the hotel’s front door with Gutsy, the enormous
handmade mask crafted by Japanese artist
and actress Mieko Yuki, greeting guests with
a complicated smile. The artist’s whimsical
ceramic muses and jesters, which are in
deliberate contrast to the bold architecture,
also appear throughout Delicatessen, the
hotel’s uptown eatery and gourmet shop,
and in the main elevators. Air-flow, the
work of painter and sculptor Antony
Donaldson—an early proponent of the British
pop art movement in the sixties—graces the
central foyer. Donaldson’s patented bronze and
steel globe conveys the international theme and
spirit of the hotel, interpreting this traditional
subject beyond conventional limits by spanning
from the vast to the smaller and more familiar.
The intriguing sculpture evokes questions and
is the first hint of the style and surprises that
await you within the hotel.
Dreamlike, thoughtful and highly personal
paintings by Yoshitaka Echizenya are displayed in
the bathrooms of hotel’s Park and Deluxe rooms. ▪Clockwise: An
