This Equinox location is prominently located in the eight-story, 363,000 square foot One Culver building within the heart of Downtown Culver City.

A pedestrian scaled urban context surrounds this 1986 mid-rise building which was recently transformed into a mixed-use destination that formally served as the HQ office of Sony Pictures. The design concept of this luxury fitness club was inspired with the site’s unique location and lineage in the creative entertainment hub of LA.

The presence of the club has three unique exterior frontages on the first level, each with distinct urban characteristics: street, urban café, and main entry. The façade is defined the by the concept of “iconic portals” identified by the qualities of three street frontages: Washington Boulevard, Madison Avenue, and the entry circle drive.

The 30,490 square foot club anchors the entry experience by blending the café, retail boutique, and the membership concierge with a sculptural steel stair that leads up to the second level. The second level of the club connects a luxe lounge with the viewing deck of the Sony Pictures Studio, linking private entries to the lockers, shower and steam sauna and spa suite.

An artfully fabricated custom glass tube and steel rod screen offers privacy in the lounge while offering openness and connectivity to the main axis of the club that leads to the open fitness area.
