Revealing History, Promoting Culture. ARTS at King Street Station is a welcoming, vibrant arts and cultural hub that highlights communities of color and honors indigenous origins. The space’s raw, unfinished character reveals the building’s evolution from an historic train station to a contemporary transit and cultural hub. In addition to gallery spaces, ARTS provides flexible, co-use areas for community gathering and workspace for the City of Seattle Office of Arts and Culture. A public “Living Room” connects the gallery with a studio for artists-in-residence. Designed as Schacht Aslani Architects with Olson Kundig, gallery consultant. 📷: Benjamin Benschneider

Building forms bend and shift to create intersecting spaces that connect student communities. Design-build delivery by Mithun and Hensel Phelps. LEED Gold target. Image: @mir.no

This new interdisciplinary learning center transforms the Olympic College campus—redefining the main entry, completing the pedestrian spine and joining with adjacent academic buildings to form a central quadrangle. The design strengthens visibility of the college’s arts and health programs, fosters synergies between the disciplines and encourages student engagement. At the building’s heart, a three-story atrium reinforces community with layered gathering spaces that connect to specialized studio, simulation, practice and performance venues. Designed as Schacht Aslani Architects. LEED Gold certified. http://mithun.com/project/olympic-college-college-instruction-center/ (clickable link in bio) 📷: @k7scott

Today we're sharing the first in a series of significant projects designed by Schacht Aslani Architects, which recently joined our integrated design team at Mithun. The new Cedar River Watershed Headquarters supports the work of Seattle Public Utilities to protect the ecological health of the region’s water supply. The building consolidates operations, natural resources, protection and cultural resources staff into a space that embraces the natural environment, and promotes workforce collaboration and efficiencies. The LEED Gold certified and net-zero energy target design supports resilient operations and limited dependence on the energy grid during harsh winter conditions.
