We’re excited to lead a tour of @thenorthwestschool for attendees of the 2018 A4LE PNW Regional Conference on May 4. The 401 East Pike building is a catalyst project for the independent school, enriching its urban campus and consolidating programs that were previously distributed across the neighborhood. The variegated façade echoes the signature yellow clapboards of the adjacent historic Summit School building. An overlaid fenestration pattern, inspired by wavelengths, celebrates the school’s art and science focused curriculum. Sustainability is integrated throughout, from native plantings to the interactive energy and water performance dashboard, and rooftop solar hot water array. 📷: Benjamin Benschneider
