Located on Expedia Group’s new 40-acre corporate campus bordering Seattle’s coastline, the Prow is a biophilic retreat for the company’s staff. The design creates a soulful sanctuary that is integrated with the surrounding environment and away from the day-to-day offices, allowing employees to clear their mind and thus spurring innovation. The concept was driven by form and function.

“This project really stood out through its balance of craft and engagement with the site ecology. Natural and artificial lighting reinforces the dynamic, angular forms that cut a complimentary silhouette to the distant mountains. Horizon lines shift across the modest plan, making occupants acutely aware of the environment and forming a celebration of living with the land.”
