In the heart of Seattle–Tacoma International Airport, this expansive lounge offers frequent travelers a moment of calm and care. Collaborating with Graham Baba Architects, we translated Alaska Airlines’ brand ethos into a warm, inviting experience. A Northwest-inspired palette draws from corporate colors, while custom-designed seating creates zones for dining, working, or rest. Real wood and leather are featured in both refined and unexpected applications, grounding the space in natural materials. Despite its large scale, the lounge feels intimate—thanks to Charlie’s thoughtful approach to acoustics, light, and handcrafted details. The result is a serene, functional haven that reflects Alaska’s commitment to comfort and connection.
