1800 Ninth

Talon Private Capital recently remodeled the lobby of 1800 Ninth, a 16-story office tower in Seattle's Denny Triangle.

The building was on the periphery of downtown when it was built in the late 1980s, but with the emergence of nearby South Lake Union as a hub for technology firms, it is being repositioned to appeal to tech tenants.

Work involved a new entry canopy, exterior finishes and signage. The lobby now has a Caffe Ladro coffee bar and areas for informal meetings.

There is also a remodeled upper-level deck, a 50-person conference space, commuter facilities and a 9,000-square-foot fitness center.

The 5,000-square-foot lobby has a wood ceiling feature constructed of veneer walnut planks. The texture of the wood extends through the space to visually link the entry, lobby and elevator core.

Furnishings, lighting, concierge desk and coffee bar contribute to the modern, minimalist look of the space.
