Early Design Guidance SDCI project# 3023379 Date: June 15, 2016 Gensler 20 6.0 citizenM DEVELOPMENT Urban Presence

citizenM Hotels brings a unique perspective on hospitality to world-class cities such as Seattle: mobile citizens want lively, inspiring spaces that serve as areas to mix with locals and propel them out into the city. citizenM Seattle is aimed at travelers and locals. citizenM Hotels develops and owns their properties and as such has a vested interest in their connection to the city and neighborhood. The Westlake and John project is a 257 key hotel designed to sit within the vibrant South Lake Union neighborhood and contribute to its sustained growth. It will connect to its context at the overall building scale as well as at the pedestrian level.

The site is roughly one sixth block in size. The building is organized with six levels of guestrooms over two floors of retail and public areas. A portion of the roof is occupiable with the remainder of the open roof area given over to landscape. No on-site parking is proposed.

Early Design Guidance SDCI project# 3023379 Date: June 15, 2016 Gensler 21 6.0 citizenM DEVELOPMENT Massing

The simplicity of massing and articulation – six levels of guestrooms above a tall, glazed pedestrian- focused street level – have their roots in the company’s Dutch DNA: high-quality, well-detailed urban-scale architecture that functions well for both neighboring buildings and passersby.

The building’s massing ties directly into the adjacent properties. The hotel’s eight story structure matches the bulk and height of the proposed building directly to the west at 910 John Street. The gridded facade reflects its function of a hotel room units and ties into the expressed floor and bay structure of 910 John.

Along Westlake, the height of the building and its presence along the street echo the scale of recent buildings along the street. Street-level articulation is typically comprised of one or two story recessed or protruding retail as at the Rollins Street Flats. As proposed, the two-story glazed band of the retail and public areas closely matches in height the lowered portion of the adjacent Sellen building.

Along John Street, a connection to Denny Park is made with the introduction of a large-scale art piece wrapping the alley corner. This both sets up a dynamic pedestrian experience leading toward Westlake and improves the articulation of the alley.

citizenM guestrooms are designed to be compact and provide just what travelers need – a big bed, a great shower and super-fast wi-fi – while preparing them to explore the city around them. The wall-to- wall bed and fully glazed street wall connect guests to the life of the street. Customizable lighting registers the personality of each guest on the facade.

The typical citizenM hotel is constructed modularly with off-site fabrication of guestroom modules increasing construction quality. Tight supply chains and recycling protocols result in a 90% reduction of construction waste versus conventional building. citizenM’s modular experience shows that construction duration is typically reduced by 6 months over conventional methods significantly reducing pollution typically associated with construction.

Modular construction is one important facet of the brand’s focus on sustainability and high- performance buildings. Recently-constructed buildings are operating at LEED Silver. The Westlake and John building is designed to perform similarly. The building’s orientation and shallow guestroom depth maximize opportunities for daylighting. Motorized shading, LED lighting and active chilled beams are linked to a robust guestroom controls system allows for real-time monitoring of the hotel’s performance.

Early Design Guidance SDCI project# 3023379 Date: June 15, 2016 Gensler 23 6.0 citizenM DEVELOPMENT Large-scale Art

citizenM buildings are noteworthy for their use of high-quality materials and their incorporation of large-scale art into the design of the exterior envelope.

At the southwest corner, large scale artwork will mark the corner of Westlake and John providing both a focal point from the neighborhood Gateway at Denny and enlivening the Heart Location.

Along John, the southwest corner fronting Denny Park is celebrated with a two-story art piece wrapping the corner to the alley. This work operates at the most important scale, that of the pedestrian, and sets up a lively connection between the sidewalk and the public spaces of the interior.

Exterior materials will be chosen for their ability to age gracefully. When viewed at the urban scale, opaque sections of the façade are balanced against the highly transparent base and gridded facade. Refined detailing at the opaque portions of the building will provide balance between a desired simplicity and visual interest.
