The AmericaJR Web Team recently visited the Chihuly Garden and Glass Museum in Seattle, Washington. It is an exhibit in the Seattle Center directly next to the Space Needle, showcasing the studio glass of Dale Chihuly. The project features three primary components: the Garden, the Glasshouse, and the Interior Exhibits, with significant secondary spaces including a bar featuring both all-ages seating and a separate area for guests age 21+, a 50-seat multi-use theater and lecture space, retail and lobby spaces, and extensive public site enhancements beyond the Garden. The 100-foot-long installation inside of the Glasshouse is one of Chihuly’s largest suspended sculptures. Designed with the help of architect Owen Richards, the facility was awarded LEED silver certification from the USGBC.
Chihuly Garden and Glass is located at: 305 Harrison St. Seattle, WA.
