Chelan County PUD’s Service Center – Part 1 Chelan County PUD’s Service Center reached completion this year! Inspired by the confluence of the Columbia and Wenatchee Rivers, this project prioritizes transparency and community connection. Located on a 21-acre site, the 8-building Maintenance, Operation and Administration (MOA) campus provides operational efficiency for nearly 600 employees while reflecting the region's natural beauty. It is our fourth project with Chelan County PUD (CCPUD). We’re honored to be part of the positive impact these new facilities will have on both their staff and the surrounding community. This was a collaborative effort aimed at creating a sustainable future for generations to come. These photos focus on the Administration & Customer Service building (Building A), it acts as a campus frontispiece screening the more utilitarian Operations buildings to the south. The words “Owned by the People We Serve”, the philosophy by which CCPUD operates, have been placed on the façade facing Highway 285 to remind all who pass of CCPUD’s commitment to their customers.

We are pleased to announce the kickoff of the Cape Flattery School District Progressive Design-Build project for the Neah Bay K-12 Campus. Our collaborative team, consisting of Korsmo Construction, TCF Architecture, and Formline Architecture + Urbanism, is dedicated to creating a space that honors and reflects the Makah Tribal culture and their community. This event featured engaging meetings and interactive sessions that established a strong foundation for this important project. Our group also toured the Makah Cultural & Research Center Museum deepening our understanding of the rich history and traditions. We look forward to sharing updates as we progress, ensuring that the community's voice remains central to our work. Stay tuned for more developments as we embark on this journey together! #improvingcommunities #NeahBayWA #designisinthedetails #MakahTribe

TCF’s design team worked on Key Peninsula Middle School and Kopachuck Middle School simultaneously for Peninsula School District. A strategy to develop a consistent design theme that would translate well at both schools was requested, with the only obvious variation being the color palette to reflect each school’s colors. Home to the Cougars in Lakebay, WA, Key Peninsula is a building modernization with an administration wing addition and gym expansion. Originally built in the early 1980s, the project goal was to improve functionality and flow of interior spaces, provide fresh new signage to enhance wayfinding, and maximize natural light to better the overall learning environment. The building’s entrance was redesigned with an additional vestibule for accessibility along with concrete ramps, steps, and a freshly landscaped plaza.

We’ve got those professional photos of Kopachuck Middle School up! Home of the Coyotes in Gig Harbor, WA, the project is a school modernization with an administration wing addition. It reconfigures interior spaces to meet the program needs of about 500 students grades 6-8, improves wayfinding, and upgrades interior & exterior finishes for a better learning/teaching environment for all students and staff. Outside enhancements include a landscaped entry plaza, a new vestibule and parking areas for staff and visitors. A common design theme can be found with Key Peninsula Middle School, another project by TCF, which varies only in color palette to showcase each school’s colors.
