Pacific Northwest Regional Architecture

You can find this great looking building at the Naramata Centre in Naramata, BC

I don’t know who the architect is.

The Tsawwassen Quay Market at the BC Ferries terminal in Tsawwassen was built in 2005 and designed by Stantec Architects. The large windows and glulam wood beams are a great example of contemporary Northwest architecture.

I stumbled upon this manufacturer of wood doors.

Stilewood is located in Port Coquitlam, BC. They have some really nice contemporary designs that I thought readers of this blog would appreciate.

This is Mattick’s Farm in Cordova Bay just north of Victoria, BC, Canada. It’s a collection of shops and businesses. A nice example of Pacific Northwest Regional Architecture. The buildings fit in perfectly with their environment.

Designed by D’Ambrosio architecture of Victoria.

Joseph Greif is an architect in Seattle, and although I wouldn’t say most of his work that I’ve seen strikes me as being distinctly Pacific Northwest style, here are a couple of images of his work that do…

This is the Threshold Building in Gig Harbor, Washington. It is LEED Certified, and has a rooftop garden that is an eco-roof which helps reduce heat absorption and insulates the building. Big windows allow for natural lighting, and the timbers are reclaimed from windfallen trees in the Oregon forest.

The architects were John Savo and Randy Benedict at NBBJ

I found this house at Puget Drive & West 31st in Vancouver, BC, Canada

The architect is Loy Leyland
