PACIFIC WEST BANK HEADQUARTERS
Creating a space for the community to gather
When Pacific West Bank sought to create a flagship location in the historic Wells Fargo Center, they engaged us to craft a solution that would balance the desire to welcome the community into a lounge-like celebratory space with the aesthetic sensibilities stability of a trustworthy bank partner.
The overall palette of blues, greens, brass and rough hewn reclaimed wood reinforce the vision. Local artists are showcased throughout the space to highlight the vibrant local community that Pacific West supports.

The primary reception area doubles as a forum to host events for clients and community members. With rooms that open up and sweeping views of the Portland skyline, it is as appropriate for a glass of wine at a charity event as welcoming a trusted banking partner.
We relied on beautifully textured surfaces to create interest while retaining the soothing, trustworthy brand pallet of blues and greens.
A thoughtful mother’s room design ensures that those recently returning to work can be comfortable and cared for.
The primary working areas feature interest on the walls, through finish carpentry and two tone paint treatments that compliment the sweeping views.
