URBAL ARCHITECTURE

Location: Everett, WA

Designed for the Aerospace Machinist Union District 751, this project is a ground-up redesign for the union's assembly hall and union district management offices. In addition, training and education facilities for aerospace, automotive, and general metal fabrication were incorporated to encourage new union membership and career development. The goals of the project were to highlight and display the various disciplines of machining while creating modern and highly functional educational and administrational spaces. The exterior design takes cues from the aerospace and machining industry, with the cladding and fenestration providing clean and crisp lines that create a simple form derived directly from the overarching programmatic function.
