Crosby at 685 Catalina St

Crosby started out as a ubiquitous parking garage off Wilshire Blvd. In the adaptive reuse of the existing 4-story parking garage, this project creates a 120 unit multi-family residential building. Four stories of wood frame construction sit on a podium over the top of the existing garage. The garage serves as parking for this building and the tower next door which is an adaptive reuse office tower by a separate architect of record.

Skechers Design Center and Executive Office Building

The Design Center and Executive Office Building are the newest additions to a series of Skecher buildings aimed at centralizing their offices forming a corporate campus along Sepulveda Blvd/Pacific Coast Highway at the border of Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach. They are LEED Gold Certified, as are the other Skechers buildings.

The Design Center has 104,000 sf of office area with three and a half levels of subterranean parking. Its ocean facing elevations’ sunscreens and operable windows take advantage of ocean breezes. The 2nd floor courtyard features views of the Pacific Coast Highway adding relief to the façade and creating gathering and event space. The office and showroom’s doors facing the courtyard open to become indoor/outdoor spaces during events. The Design Center received the silver award for Architectural Excellence by Los Angeles Business Journal.

The Executive Office Building is three stories of office space, over 17,000 sf, with three levels of subterranean garage space. The design includes a dramatic large, glistening, stainless steel tower, sunken garden, and floating glass curtain wall with an apex that is visible when traveling south from Manhattan Beach to Hermosa Beach. The spaces created by the angled curtain walls make for breathtaking conference rooms and executive offices. The Executive Office Building received the silver award for Best New Headquarters by Los Angeles Business Journal.
