Luxury Apartment Residences and Retail in Sherman Oaks

Since it was constructed in 1970, the iconic office building has stood in Sherman Oaks as a symbol of the citrus industry in the San Fernando Valley. Once the headquarters of the Sunkist brand, the building was designed in the Brutalist style by the renowned Los Angeles architect group, A. C. Martin and Associates. The recessed windows and reinforced concrete structure creates an inverted pyramid style that is reminiscent of a citrus crate, and pays homage to the historic company’s place in the San Fernando Valley.

At the heart of the Citrus Commons, the office building will be preserved and will have fresh finishes in the lobby and a reimagined interior courtyard. The architecture of the Sunkist office building blends seamlessly with the new mixed-use community design by Johnson Fain with subtle allusions to the citrus industry. The enhancement of this iconic office building represents one of the largest historic preservation projects in the San Fernando Valley and will remain a symbol of the industry that was once the heart of the Sherman Oaks community.
