Starbucks - Glacier Basecamp Lodge
Stores in National Parks should blend into their natural surroundings while providing a shelter from the outdoor elements. The exterior of this store in Glacier National Park takes notes from the traditional ’70s log cabins found in the area. The interior emphasizes the coziness desired after a long hike, with a fireplace and warm lighting and finishes. A well-placed painting ties the mountains of coffee origin countries to the dramatic backdrop of the nearby Rockies.
