| The Museum of Contemporary Craft, located nearby in the Pearl District is opening a new exhibit on land art of the 1960s and 1970s.
Museum of Contemporary Craft in partnership with Pacific Northwest College of Art presents William Gilbert, who will discuss shifts in contemporary understanding of the genre of Land Art, tracing connections from his own study of ceramics in Montana with Rudy Autio to the innovative “Land Arts of the American West” program he co-founded with Chris Taylor.

A Grand Opening to Remember!
11.14.09
Some of you out there may be wondering why it took a whole week to reflect on our Grand Opening.
Those who were there probably understand exactly why it took so long, because an event of that magnitud requires at least a week of recovery time before it can be properly digested.
Portlanders packed the lobby, eager to experience, “The Indigo Life” for themselves. They would soon learn that Inidigo’s premier living spaces more than live up to the hype.
The entire evening was simply bursting with excitment. The lobby entrance took on the glamorous feel of a swanky New York City nightclub and I’m sure every passerby was shocked to hear that it was, in fact, an apartment building that was responsible for drawing such an impressive crowd.
Portland's Newest Nightclub?
The 14th floor showcased our unrivaled model apartments, while the 23rd floor penthouses, featured local food, drink, and fashion from neighborhood vendors. From there, the party continued its unique flavor up in the awe-inspiring rooftop lounge.
By the end of the night, the consensus was unmistakable. Everyone agreed that Indigo residents live in a uniquely hip, luxurious, and yet remarkably sustainable community.
We would like to thank our generous residents for sharing their building with the curious crowd and also our guests who helped us make our grand opening a truly memorable night that Portland will not soon forget.
Opening Glimpse: Penthouse II
11.03.09
Indigo 12 West’s Grand Opening is Thursday night. Two more days! To prepare you for the excitement to come, here’s another glimpse into the tastes, views, and fashions of the night.
Penthouse II is steeped in the true northwest tradition with Edgefield/McMenamin’s and Pendleton.
Drink/Ta
stes: Even if you’ve only spent a day in Portland, you’ve probably seen about a dozen McMenamin’s establishments. Known for their specatular historical buildings, great brews, and good food, you really can’t go wrong with McMenamins (especially the Rubinator…). Indigo is doubly excited to have these folks around, since we’re right across the street from their newest venture, the Crystal Hotel! Sip Edgefield wine and great brews as you take in the view of the northwest.
Fashion: Another northwest staple will show you the best of Oregon fashion. Pendleton Wool Mills dates back to the 1800s and now has stores nationwide. They mill a soft, lightweight, 100% virgin wool, creating beautiful blankets, sweaters, scarves and shawls. Fashion never felt so soft and comfortable!

Opening Glimpse: Penthouse I
11.02.09
Indigo’s Grand Opening is creeping up on us– just a few more days to November 5th!
You’ll have the ability to peek into six of our Penthouse units. In each one a different West End vendor will ply you with food, drink, and fashion until you burst with excitement and joy. That’s our goal, at least.
For those who just can’t wait, here’s a little peek at one of the Penthouses. Check back for more over the next few days!
Penthouse I has a smattering of West End top picks, with some great wine: Foundry Vineyards, Living Room Theaters, Narcisse
Drink: Your palate will be tickled by the wines of Foundry Vineyards, located in nearby Walla Walla, W
A. Founders Mark and Patty Anderson have had a lifelong commitment to the combination of winemaking and visual art. They found that “the traditions in winemaking (as well as in art) provide the solid foundation that gives rise to creative innovation.” Sample some of their best to find your favorite!
Tastes: Your tastebuds will dance with the small plates from Living Room Theaters, located just steps away on 10th and Stark. Emphasizing healthy, tapas-style small plates, the Theater’s cuisine provides perfect snacks for watching the big screen action. Or the great penthouse views!
Fashion: As you sip and nibble, Narcisse will be there to dazzle your fasion sense. The only shop in the USA to carry the Danish fashion line NOA NOA, Narcisse celebrated their year anniversary this September. Clothing is deliciously beautiful and well-made, like these hand-stitched corsets from designer Paloma Soledad. Surprinsingly affordable and unique! And did I mention beautiful?
