Situated in the vibrant heart of Seattle, Northlake Commons is a groundbreaking project that redefines modern architecture with its innovative use of mass timber and expansive glazing systems. This pioneering development sets a new benchmark for eco-friendly construction and design excellence in the Pacific Northwest.
The project features an advanced mass timber support structure, reflecting on the industry's dedication to reducing environmental impact. Mass timber, a renewable and carbon-sequestering material, not only contributes to a lower carbon footprint but also offers exceptional strength and durability. This choice represents the Northwest's commitment to sustainable building practices and architectural innovation.
Northlake Commons is distinguished by its striking architectural elements, particularly its extensive use of glazing, all fabricated and installed by Mission Glass. Large expanses of glass allow natural light to permeate the building, creating a bright and inviting atmosphere. This design choice not only reduces the need for artificial lighting but also provides stunning views of Seattle's skyline and natural surroundings, integrating the building harmoniously with its environment. The open, flexible layout fosters a dynamic and inclusive environment where creativity and community can thrive. The thoughtful design promotes interaction and engagement, making it an ideal setting for both work and social activities.
Whether you come for business or leisure, you'll experience a space where architectural brilliance meets environmental responsibility.
