space needle south canopy trellis // Seattle, WA
The Space Needle South Canopy Trellis integrates modern architectural design and lush landscaping, to create a welcoming and functional space that enhances the pedestrian experience. The trellis features sleek, steel structural elements paired with translucent glass panels, providing both aesthetic appeal and subtle weather protection. Its curved design lends a sense of motion and fluidity, blending with the surrounding urban environment.
The accompanying landscape design complements the structure with vibrant, low-maintenance plantings of shrubs, ornamental grasses, and seasonal foliage. These carefully selected plants provide year-round visual interest while softening the modern lines of the trellis. The addition of built-in seating elements and climbing vegetation integrates natural beauty into the space, inviting people to linger and enjoy the surroundings.
This combination of thoughtful architecture and landscaping elevates the public realm and creates a vibrant, pedestrian-friendly destination that fosters community engagement. The project exemplifies how design can transform an urban space into a dynamic and appealing asset for developers and stakeholders.
