Nordic Museum received a 2018 AIA Washington Council Civic Design Citation Award! The design jury complimented the quality of light in the museum and how it plays across the faceted planes of the central Fjord Hall, highlighting the reverence for natural light shared by the Pacific Northwest and Nordic regions. 📷: @brucedamonte
We recently checked out the fabrication progress on precast concrete panels for the @UCIrvine Middle Earth Expansion. It was fantastic to collaborate with Coreslab on creating the folded planes and variation in this façade. Utilizing storytelling through materiality, the articulated residential towers emerge from a landform base, echoing the character and shadows of the surrounding region’s dramatically exposed and layered sandstone cliffs. 📷: Chip Hammer, Image: Plompmozes
We’re excited to participate in Park(ing) Day 2018 this Friday with an installation, “Kelp us Sea it Through,” adjacent to Seattle’s Pier 57 (just north of our Seattle office). Our ocean-themed parking spot highlights the significance of water to Seattle and the importance of keeping it clean. We're reusing Mithun’s Block Party installation to flank our parking spot and mount a mural – reminiscent of a ship’s skeleton hull strung with fishing net and kelp – all using recycled and found materials. Visitors will be invited to play a game using recycled materials to determine their paint by numbers color. Ultimately, we’re asking people to trust that what they’re contributing to a blank canvas will become something complete. JOIN US: Friday, Sept 21, 10am – 4pm, Pier 57
Weâre thrilled to share that @NordicMuseum has won an @AIAWA Civic Design Citation Award. Congratulations! https://t.co/pyDZ4UyrvE https://t.co/0TwdZxiLa0
“The stigma of living ‘in the projects’ is gone, is no more, with the advent of these recent affordable housing developments, thanks to the Mayor’s Office of Housing and many other partners,” said Mithun partner Daniel Solomon, leading yesterday’s tour of 626 Mission Bay Blvd as part of AIA San Francisco - AIASF’s Architecture + the City festival. #DesignforPositiveChange Tenderloin Neighborhood Development Corporation San Francisco Mayor's Office of Housing and Community Development Studio VARA KPFF San Francisco
