ecohaus Bellevue pictures

I had left Bellevue for Portland a day before the soft opening and needless to say, it still looked like my basement. From all reports, the opening was a success and that the store is beautiful.

Anytime you design a space you have a pretty good picture of how it will look and, to some degree, how it will feel. Invariably, there are differences from your design and visualization.
I have not yet seen the finished version but am looking forward to seeing it tomorrow especially since I received these photos from Mary Gomez Camba. Thanks, Mary!

ecohaus Bellevue now ready for business

Thanks to everyone's hard work the Bellevue store will receive its first customers this morning.

This project was a difficult one as it overlapped the ecohaus Portland remodel and was a departure in design from the first two stores. It proves that the concept and fixtures will work in different configurations and venues. It also proved that opening a brand new store using the new staff to put the store together is a great idea.

I'll post photos of the finished project as I get them.

and they're off!

Thanks to the fired up and ready to go staff of ecohaus Bellevue the fixturing and store parts are now up and ready for merchandising. I was shocked and awed by the staff's attitude and ability to get things done in a hurry. What I had anticipated taking a week was accomplished in 2 days. My hat is off to them, especially Carly, Julie, Russ and the inimitable Jesse. Great job, guys!
