Lazy Eye’s production office is situated within an existing one story CMU block building in Frogtown near the Los Angeles River. The offices are organized around a central open space for communal working. Natural light permeates the offices through a custom designed steel door and window system, and circular skylights. The exterior CMU has been sandblasted exposing a variated pink hue. New book-matched oak paneling, vintage refurbished pendant lights, stucco, concrete and steel complement the existing CMU and sandblasted wood trusses and joists.

Project Size: 1325 SF
Project Location: Frogtown, Los Angeles, CA

Bringing natural light into a typically dark structure was key in making this Frogtown office space a place to work creatively.

Updates such as oak paneling, vintage pendants, stucco, concrete and steel make the pre-existing CMU features feel intentional.
