Recently completed by LMN Architects, the renovated Hines Seattle Headquarters sets a new paradigm for low carbon and circular design through meticulous carbon accounting and an inventive approach to the reuse of materials.

Benjamin Benschneider Collaborating with a broader team of local fabricators, vendors, contractors, and clients, the architects carefully searched for repurposed materia... En savoir plus
