A very close friend of mine moved to the 12th ave apartments leased by community roots.

For a Seattle Art Walk a few summers back Lumenarius (then Sensebellum) had the opportunity to activate the facade of the new architecture with custom content created by area artists: Liz Tran, Frank Correa, and Dylan Neuwirth.
