Issaquah HighStreets is a Proposed Lifestyle Center for Issaquah, Washington.

Lead by Opus NW's Seattle Office, my team put forth the initial pursuit images and renderings to secure the project for Opus.

Unlike many "Lifestyle" centers, the concept behind this project is to actually provide live/work/play lifestyle. It does this through the inclusion of retail (both big box and local chains and boutiques), with Office tenants above.

The unique topography provided by this site offered many strong opportunities for developing a unique solution to what is traditionally seen as a scrape flat and build up approach.

A large amount of credit is owed to principle client Port Blakely Co. and Strong design leadership within Opus to push for a dynamic approach through out a very challenging set of jigsaw puzzle pieces.

(No project is created alone, and until vimeo has credit support for non-members, I need to point out that this design was created by the whole Opus A&E Team)
