KNKX, the largest NPR affiliate in the Seattle/Tacoma metro area, has partnered with V3 for their move into the historic Payless Building in downtown Tacoma’s Theater District. V3 was brought in as a design consultant for the renovation of the 7600 sf ground floor, which consists of 4 studios, a community focused multi-purpose performance space, as well as open office and support spaces. The new, modern technical spaces frame and accentuate the existing Corinthian columns and elegant beams that characterize the interior, while also displaying broadcast components to the public.
