Redefining an Icon: TerraMai + Columbia Center
Our Reclaimed Teak and Reclaimed White Oak exemplify the tower's sustainable transformation.
In the heart of Seattle, the Columbia Center stands as a towering icon of the city’s skyline. At the center of this reimagined space is a striking main stairway, where architects CallisonRTKL masterfully integrated our Reclaimed Teak and Reclaimed White Oak materials, creating a warm and inviting focal point that blends sustainability with sophisticated design.
Alternating our Reclaimed Teak and Reclaimed White Oak for the main stair, created a visual level of depth and interest in this complex design. But incorporating reclaimed wood into the Columbia Center’s redesign offers numerous benefits beyond aesthetics. The use of our products is a testament to the owner’s dedication to sustainable building goals. Choosing our reclaimed materials not only reduces the environmental footprint but also infuses the space with a sustainable story, unique to our wood products.
