Integrating our clients business goals with the right size facilities to meet financial projections.

MISTER GREENS

Mister Greens is a modern dispensary experience rooted in community. With this design, we balanced efficiency with a welcoming atmosphere that prioritizes the customer and visual aspects of the space.

The layout features clean-lined custom millwork and inviting display cases, as well as a bold black and gold color palette. A prominent mural (a fun take on The Wizard of Oz) draws visitors into an immersive journey as they shop around. Lighting is strategically layered to shine on product displays and create a relaxing vibe. Behind the scenes, operational efficiency is built into every detail, from the discreet transaction windows to the intuitive layout in the back.

Our work with Mister Greens was a continuation of our commitment to elevating cannabis retail spaces through thoughtful architecture. Our design goal was to resonate with consumers while supporting business growth in a competitive market.

EXPLORE THE PROJECT

CANNABIS dispensary DESIGN Services

  • This foundational phase runs in parallel across multiple teams. Due Diligence involves site and regulatory research by the architect and customer consultants, while Programming defines the project’s goals and operational needs. The result is a clear understanding of site constraints and a preliminary layout that aligns with your business model.

  • Schematic Design translates the program into initial architectural concepts. We collaborate with engineers and consultants to develop layout options, evaluate code compliance, and prepare documents for early pricing and permit applications.

  • In this phase, the design is refined in greater detail. Material selections, fixture schedules, and engineering systems are coordinated. The focus is on integrating all disciplines to ensure constructability and cost accuracy.

  • Construction Documents finalize all design decisions into detailed drawings and specifications ready for bidding, permitting, and construction. Final pricing packages are produced, and documents are submitted for approvals.

  • During construction, the architect provides support to ensure the project is built per design. This includes responding to contractor questions, reviewing submittals, observing progress, and resolving issues in real-time.
