BPG Cannabis Dispensary and Lounge

Berkeley, CA 2021

BPG (Berkeley Patient’s Group),  the country’s oldest cannabis dispensary, engaged Trachtenberg Architects to design their new flagship store for a prominent corner in West Berkeley. Through thoughtfully designed displays the project seeks to help bring the cannabis industry out of the shadows so as to express, much like a wine bar, the rich history, quality, and culture of cannabis. The second-floor mezzanine features a consumption lounge that will become a new kind of social venue.

The project is currently preparing construction documents. We expect to commence construction in the winter of 2021.
