Early in 2021 Airfield Supply Co. approached O22DL to help them envision a new cannabis retail experience unprecedented in the space. Merging an aerospace theme into a novel cannabis experience has proven to be a challenging but fun project. Airfield entered the medical cannabis space ten years ago with a location in San Jose CA quickly becoming one of the region’s busiest establishments. Leading the development process along with hand picking the collab team, Mark Odom Studio (space planning) based in Austin TX and Part and Parcel (brand strategy) based in Santa Monica has resulted in a one-of-a-kind retail concept. Don't be fooled creating an experience that not only delight customers but meets rigorous codes that combine both banking (because of the amount of cash transacted) and the pharmaceutical requirements of administering legal drugs it was quite the challenge combining both of those worlds. The immersive experience includes an educational lounge, vape bar, flower bar, new arrivals showcase, edibles area and living plants display. Stay tuned for the official ground breaking.   Learn More >

ICON's SANTA MONICA SHOWROOM OPENS TO THE PUBLIC 
ICON Aircraft, maker of the revolutionary ICON A5 Light Sport Aircraft, unveiled its first sales and demo center showroom at Santa Monica Municipal Airport (SMO). The Los Angelesarea presents an ideal flying environment for ICON's amphibious aircraft and is a cultural fit for its customers who enjoy adventure and outdoor activities.
"Santa Monica is a perfect choice for the first ICON Showroom," said Thomas Wieners, President of ICON Aircraft. "The company was founded in the Los Angeles area more than ten years ago and the region has one of the largest general aviation populations in the U.S. We look forward to connecting with existing pilots and introducing them to adventure flying in the ICON A5, as well as bringing the A5 to new and aspiring pilots who call this area home."
The new Santa Monica location is part of an expansion plan designed to grow ICON's presence across the U.S. and bring the plane closer to customers. In addition to expanding its corporate footprint through the Santa Monica showroom, ICON has sales staff based in key regions across the country and is exploring dealerships and other sales channels, as well as partnerships with third-party flight training and service providers to support customers.
"We're excited that ICON chose Santa Monica Airport for its Southern California showroom," said Christian Fry, President of the Santa Monica Airport Association. "The city of Santa Monica and the airport in particular have played pivotal roles in business and in aviation for over a hundred years. We're fortunate to have an opportunity to build on that history by welcoming an innovative company such as ICON to the Santa Monica Airport Association and help them in their mission to grow aviation and welcome a new generation of sport flying enthusiasts." 

ICON'S 300,000SF MANUFACTURING FACILITY ARRIVES
ICON Aircraft announced the construction of a new facility in Tijuana, Mexico, where it will produce composite airframe components for the A5. As part of a revised production plan announced in May, the company decided to produce its own composite components, a manufacturing process that was previously outsourced to several suppliers.
The new facility, designed with help from Orange22, is due to start operations in November, covers approximately 300,000 square feet and will fabricate composite components for the A5. The airframe parts it produces will be delivered to ICON’s existing factory in Northern California, where the rest of the aircraft manufacturing process will continue as it does today, including paint, systems installation, final assembly, testing, and aircraft delivery. The establishment of the new facility will not affect the jobs of any of ICON’s current Vacaville-based employees. ICON will control all manufacturing operations at both facilities, and composite parts will be made by ICON employees using ICON tooling, processes, and quality standards.

CARBON COLLECTION BY ORANGE22MODERN LANDS INSIDE HOWARD HUGES ORIGINAL AEROSPACE FACILITY IN PLAYA VISTA CA
When American business tycoon, inventor and filmmaker Howard Hughes headquartered Hughes Aircraft in Los Angeles’ Playa Vista neighborhood, he probably couldn’t have imagined that it would someday become home to one of the most innovative and creative advertising agencies around. After Hughes went under in 1997, its offices fell into disrepair and were subjected to years of neglect, even graffiti (an original route map of Hughes-owned TWA that hangs in the lobby was tagged by street artists after the building was abandoned). But in 2012, when 72andSunny CEO John Boiler was looking for the perfect space to relocate his growing shop, he saw the dilapidated digs as the perfect destination. “We designed for optimism—open spaces, lots of light, no personal offices,” Boiler explained. “We made a space that has timeless design and is built to be a connector, not a container.”
MODERN BARN IN AUSTIN HILL COUNTRY FEATURED IN WSJ
In Austin, Texas, the Cuernavaca neighborhood still has its laid-back, eclectic vibe. But the hippies of the ’70s are now being replaced—with techies, foodies and creative designer types. Dario and Natasha Antonioni relocated to Austin from Los Angeles with their two daughters last year, knowing they could afford a larger home without giving up the buzz of city life. They bought a traditional two-story home and transformed it into what they call a “modern barn.” for living creatively. The renovation took four months and included a new kitchen, modern entryway, removal of a spiral staircase and planting an organic garden in the backyard and an expansive minimal backyard oasis with a kids tree house, pool and massive deck. “We wanted to find a project house that we could turn into our dream house,” says Antonioni, 40, who runs a consumer experience design consultancy out of WeWork, a co-working space in downtown Austin. “It was the ugliest house on the block and now everyone in our hood comes to hangout, a bit too-often, but we don't mind!" states Antonioni. 
FLIGHT001 Designed by Dario Antonioni Opens in Harajuku Japan!
FLIGHT001 (pronounced: “flight one”) was originally conceived in 1998 aboard Air France flight 023, somewhere between New York and Paris. John Sencion and Brad John, two business travelers who had spent far too much time preparing for their trip, envisioned a travel store as streamlined as flight itself. Luckily for travelers, their mid-air epiphany resulted in a jet-setter’s dream: an all-inclusive, retro-modern store that satisfies the traveler’s every need. The stores design, from the architecture, to the graphics, to the custom fixtures was envisioned by founder of Orange22 Design Lab.
"Flight001 has been a dream client. They allowed us to fully realize our vision for their brand across all customer touch points. The overall result is an amalgamation of various universal aspects of travel like the check in counter, the boarding jetway, the airplane, the baggage claim, the map. These experiential nodes have been abstracted and curated into a holistic expression, that which is now FLIGHT001. The result is a powerful and familiar environment that evokes emotion and delivers meaning." - Dario Antonioni
