Contemporary Collection
Mercer
Materials: Graphite contemporary composite with diffused smoke blue glass
The Mercer was designed as a reflection of the contemporary architecture of the Pacific Northwest, particularly found on Mercer Island, which is bounded by Seattle to the west and Bellevue to the east. The undeniably modern and clean aesthetic created with the use of graphite composite is softened with the incorporation of a large pane of smoke blue glass, mimicking the unique juxtaposition between the modern and the natural found in Washington’s King County.
