Completed Seattle

I am including some shots of the completed ecohaus Seattle to use as a contextual comparison for the upcoming ecohaus Portland.

Seattle was the realization of a new retail concept. It was designed to support the customer by engaging them more fully in the "play" aspect of shopping. By formatting all the materials in the same manner a consistent palette is presented to the customer. Providing them work space and the tools needed to successfully build a material story is central in the design. It's really about access: access to materials, knowledge, space and help.

Seattle was the prototype. Now it's time to apply what we learned there to the next stores and Portland is the next.






I don't have a decent shot of the paint bar so here's the rendering.
