About the Chapter

Welcome to the Pacific Northwest Chapter of the Retail Design Institute.

We are a diverse group of designers, architects, graphic designers, suppliers, retailers, educators, and students with the goal of advancing innovation and collaboration in the creation of selling environments. Just as we are surrounded by the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest our chapter which encompasses Washington, Oregon, and Idaho is surrounded by some well-known retailers in the country if not the world. Retailers like Starbucks, Nordstrom, Costco, Eddie Bauer, Amazon, Microsoft, Nintendo, Tommy Bahama, REI, Columbia Sportswear, and Nike are just a few of our friends and neighbors.

The advancement of innovation and collaboration happens through our chapter meetings, presentations, networking events, and retail walking tours and it is the energy and enthusiasm of our members that make the Pacific Northwest Chapter stronger every day. We look forward to seeing you at one of our upcoming events.
