DAY GOODS

At the street front of Workaday Design’s Portland office you’ll find Day Goods, a one stop shop for curated home goods, furniture, and art in PDX’s Burnside neighborhood. Workaday Design is a collaborative, network-based, residential design studio. They work hand in hand with their clients and local skilled craftsmen to create good design for everyday living situations on a variety of scales.

Design offices don’t necessarily need to be public facing, so the Day Goods storefront space seemed like a unique and interesting opportunity to incorporate a retail component to the firm’s office space. This shop is curated by Lara White (one of the four partners at Workaday) and features many local makers. The shop serves as a visual representation of some of the many items that the firm is integrating into its own projects.

Jason Stamp (also one of the four partners at Workaday) enjoys making furniture when not working on some of the firm’s many residential design projects. When designing the build-out of the Day Goods shop, Jason and Lara took the opportunity to create a space that almost functions as a large furniture piece. A front seating area gradually curves into elegant wooden display shelves that flank the side of the space. The shelves then curve around to create the front desk/ checkout stand. The entirety of the display is clad in wood tambour material, the likes of which is seen in some of Workaday’s residential projects.
