Breakwater Roselle Park

Currently occupied by a car dealership, this new location has been designed to support a larger volume of customers and a wider spectrum of services. With that in mind, Breakwater wanted to make it a welcoming destination: a place where customers can spend their time as they pick up their orders in a pleasant atmosphere and dispensary’s “budtenders” have plenty of room to interact semi-privately with patients.

With the schematic design phase underway, we’ve developed two distinct options for the building. For the “greenhouse” concept, a metal grid with glass panes would surround much of the building, offering protection to a sunny outdoor waiting area / lifestyle space and a second-floor terrace. The “fluidity” concept is a little more visually private, with the interior screened by exterior elements and outdoor places for waiting minimized.

Both options emphasize the dispensary room proper, providing ample space for customer interactions under double-height ceilings and sunlights or high windows that let light shine through. These spaces will be augmented by a reception area where customers will wait prior to admission into the dispensary, multiple small rooms for private consultation, and a vault for secure product storage.

Breakwater is currently reviewing our design concepts and weighing its options.
