Tustin Commercial

RPP Architects collaborated with the Tustin Planning Center on the design of mixed-use development in Prospect Village. The project provides housing, office, and retail development in Old Town along Prospect Avenue. The development include 12 three-story town homes with retail and office space on the first floor, and two levels of residence on the top floors. A 9,000 Sq. Ft., two-story commercial building accommodates an upscale restaurant on the first floor, with some professional offices on the second.

Sensitive to the historical meaning of the given location, the design team proposed brick veneer buildings with generous cornices, reminiscent of the existing, on-site UTT Juice building. To pay tribute to this characteristic, yet non-salvageable, building, designers proposed the re-use of the most beautiful cornice parts on the existing building.
