RESEARCH
tectonicshift CONCEPT
The beauty of the Pacific Northwestfrom the Puget Sound to the Cascade Mountains- was shaped by the Cascadia Subduction Zone.
The “Shift” represents the subtle yet ever-evolving changes around us. As Everett grows, how can designers enhance the city’s civic identity?
Our project seeks to communicate this concept through the use of mezzo-levels, geometric forms, and nodes to the past, present, and future of Pacific Northwest design.

DESIGN STRATEGY
howwe’regettingthere
Research is at the epicenter of this project. Understanding the wants and needs of the end-users and the goals of the City of Everett helps us to strategize our design approach.
Programming for The Shift came from our community outreach survey. Through this survey, we sought to rethink how community can be strengthened through consumer spaces.
The Shift is designed to accommodate a diverse range of spaces and activities that Everett locals want to see more of in their community.

MEZZO SPACES
The use of mezzo-levels fosters a more organic and dynamic harmony between the commercial levels of The Shift.
The existing main levels, as well as the residential levels above, are connected through the existing elevator. The mezzo levels will be connected through staircases and intermediary elevators to allow for accessibility.
