Staircases do more than connect floors, they shape the user experience. From sculptural focal points to subtle architectural moments, a well-designed stair can define movement and bring identity to a space, helping everyday circulation becomes something memorable.

Designed as a jewel box retail destination, the new KeyBank Pavilion activates the street with vibrant ground-floor uses, an enhanced streetscape, and a welcoming public plaza.

Integrated with the adjacent Four106 development, the pavilion creates a cohesive architectural presence that strengthens the pedestrian experience.

Built over an existing 1971 parking garage, the project required a carefully coordinated structural solution and concurrent approvals, resulting in one of the most ambitious commercial projects in Bellevue to date.

Thoughtful infrastructure is an essential part of great community design. CollinsWoerman designed this 355-stall parking structure to serve five residential buildings and adjacent retail while seamlessly integrating into the fabric of Woodin Creek Village. More than parking, the structure supports the community with an emergency generator, maintenance facilities, and a skybridge connection — bringing together functionality, efficiency, and a better everyday experience for residents and visitors.
