Starbucks, You Have Stolen My Heart

These pictures don't even do the makeover justice. One of the busiest Starbucks, University Village Starbucks in Seattle Washington, was reopened last month with its new design. It is awesome!!!! I have seen my fair share of Starbucks and this one is hands down the coolest one ever. Not only does it look good but it is a LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certified building. The concept of the coffeehouse design was it make it environmentally friendly, incorporate local recycled elements, and make it part of the neighborhood it belongs in. Check out this list of awesome reclaimed materials they used.
