Young Architects Forum + Mass Timber Committee: Construction Tour : 35 Stone
Join the Young Architects Forum and Mass Timber Committee for a construction tour of 35 Stone. The design team will guide a tour through the active construction site to discuss the design process, outcomes and highlight key considerations for building with mass timber.
Mass Timber Committee + Young Architects Forum (YAF)
Project Description: Telling a timber story of sustainability, 35 Stone celebrates Seattle’s origins with its mass timber framework and an industrial inspired form. The neighborhood-focused workplace and retail experience anchors the corner of evolution Projects Campus Seattle and will be a showcase for Seattle’s Living Building Pilot Program.
The building leverages the strength of a Dowel Laminated Timber (DLT) floor system with a glulam structural frame that reduces the building’s carbon footprint compared to steel and concrete construction. The warmth of the Douglas Fir interior provides a visual reminder of the building’s connection to nature and honors the region’s historic timber industry.
