Arrival with the light
Up the palm drive off Sunset as the light turns. A swim for those who want it, an aperitivo under the trees for those who don't. Nothing begins on a schedule.
The Beverly Hills Hotel · Los Angeles · 17 September 2026
The Evening
One long table in the gardens of the Pink Palace.
An intimate dinner. One table, kept small by design. One conversation, carried from the first course to the last.
I · The invitation
Beautiful surroundings are never the destination.
They are invitations to slow down, to engage, to discover, and to belong.
Born on the shores of Lake Geneva and carried from Zürich to Dubai, the House now sets its table in California — at a hotel that has been holding the city's conversations since 1912. The Evening is the smaller of our gatherings: the one that stays in the room.
II · The shape of the night
Golden hour, then the table, then the fire.
A chef-led dinner
One long table, and no second one. The evening is carried by a single woven conversation — a question posed with each course, answered around the whole table rather than in pairs.
Digestif by fire
The table dissolves into the garden. A last glass, unhurried, no closing remarks. The evening ends itself.
The setting
The Beverly Hills Hotel.
The Pink Palace on Sunset Boulevard — open since 1912, and for a century the room where Los Angeles has done its talking. Palms, bungalows, gardens that hold a conversation without amplifying it. We take one table in it.
The table · one conversation
Before dinner · the water
No stage. No name tags. Nothing performed.
What is newest in longevity comes to the table the way everything else does — carried by the people building it, placed among the guests rather than presented at them, and open to the question that follows.
The rarest luxury is not exclusivity. It is finding yourself among people who leave you more inspired than when you arrived.
III · Who sits at the table
Every seat is invited by name and earned by work.
Builders and creators — of companies, of culture, of science, of what the body can do — and the investors who back them. People who make things, gather people, and follow their curiosity further than most.

IV · The House in California
The California chapter is carried by Reza Kazemipour.
Two decades across venture, mergers, and the boardroom, now CEO of Sixth Ring, the first generative-AI wellness platform trained on Olympic performance data. He sets the room here as our circle does in Zürich and Dubai.
Take part
Two ways to help set the room.
Hosts & venues
September is set. The tables after it are not. Lend the House a room worth remembering — an estate, a vineyard, a table. In return: a curated audience of taste, discretion in every detail, and a story your walls will keep.
Co-hosts & curators
Help set the room — shape the guest list, bring your craft or your cellar to the table, and make the evening yours as much as ours.
