Seattle, WA
The 12-sided inflected tower named 1107, whose shape can be likened to a bowtie or butterfly, acknowledges that the best way to connect with distant, natural features comes by looking diagonally through the rational University District street-grid. 1107 offers a distinct sense of place within the city by echoing nearby outdoor campus spaces, which are also oriented to provide distant vantages.
