Side x Side Architects

Before printing tee shirts for the team, the Side x Side Architects office decided to print dozens of tote bags to give out to their new neighbors in the Chinatown-International District. After noticing groups of locals utilizing somewhat tired grocery bags around the neighborhood, SxS founding partner, Gladys Ly-Au Young, didn’t hesitate to find a solution. We collaborated with their team to produce sturdy tote bags using the “cherry blossom” symbol (fondly named by the SxS team). The form celebrates both the exponential power of collaboration, as well as their new home in the C-ID. . . .

Thanks to everyone who stopped by during JAMFEST! We had a great time warming the new office space, meeting our neighbors, and looking forward to all that's ahead.

On June 8th, Side x Side Architects will move to Seattle’s Chinatown International District. Our new office, a historic storefront in the Eastern Hotel building on Maynard Ave. S., will be a place to work side by side on projects and offer space for community gathering and creative collaboration. — #PracticeChange #SustainableDesign #EquitableArchitecture #GreenBuilding #SocialJusticeDesign #Community #EnvironmentalDesign #SustainableLiving #InclusiveDesign #ClimateAction #DesignForGood #EquityInDesign #BuildingBetterCommunities  #SocialImpactDesign #SustainableDevelopment #Architecture #Design #InteriorDesign #Architect #DesignInspiration #Interiors #ArchitecturalDesign
