Landscape Architecture
Located in Seattle’s densely residential Capitol Hill neighborhood, this new development transforms a one-story grocery store that currently provides an inactive face to its busy surroundings, into a vibrant new neighbor.

Pedestrian-Focused Design
Working with the pedestrian-centric nature of its location is central to the design. Streetscape activation with deep setbacks, verdant landscaping, spill-out retail areas and a vibrant residential courtyard celebrate the community’s friendly vibe.

Historic-inspired brickwork
Design elements reflect the charm of the neighborhood context and inspiration from nearby historic buildings. The project’s brickwork, with varying bond patterns, creates a timeless feel in a modern way.
