Paso Robles

The Landing at Paso Robles is a unique location unifying various activities. From wineries and breweries to warehouse maker spaces, a blurred indoor-outdoor environment leverages the destination’s perfect climate to foster connections in a casual setting.

With elements influenced by the adjacent airport in wine country, Paso Robles is designed to offer a unique motif that fuses modern aesthetics with a rich local legacy. These themes can be found throughout the different building types, from grand sliding barn doors that reveal flattering glass walls to sweeping laminated timber beams that soar overhead.

A closer look at the site reveals the presence of existing oak trees, adding a natural charm and contributing to the spatial qualities with dappled light. To further enhance the story, a farm-to-table grape-growing demonstration garden was included to embrace the agricultural essence of the region.

The Landing at Paso Robles will boast diverse offerings, including resort hotels for a luxurious stay, a vibrant market hall, well-equipped office spaces, and retail establishments. Each detail weaves together seamlessly to create an enticing and memorable destination.

100 & Main

100 & Main is a collection of ten premier residential units combining classic luxury with modern architecture. Designed as a “Swiss watch built on a postage stamp,” the building, which balances making a statement with sitting lightly on a busy pedestrian-friendly corner, proved deceptively challenging. By artfully addressing a steep slope and condensed lot size with architectural detailing, 100 & Main is a unique treasure in Old Bellevue.

100 & Main was honored with NAIOP’s Night of the Stars Multi-Family Residential Development of the Year Award.

Mitch Smith’s Philosophy of Transparency and Authenticity

At 425 Business, Mitch Smith and John Stearns talk about why transparency is so important at the Costco Headquarters.

“It’s incredibly important to our organization that we are very open about what we’re doing, why we’re doing it, what our strategy is, our finances, how we’re performing, and really promoting a mindset of radical transparency. What I’ve found is that it builds a tremendous amount of trust with our employees in the organization. It’s when they don’t know that there are issues.” Mitch Smith said to John Stearns of 425 Business.
