A medical marijuana dispensary designed by Sand Studios caught our attention. Its mission is to carry out medical cannabis from the shadows and into the light and help patients feel good in the place in which they receive cannabis. The menu and the price guide are shown on LCD screens
Hung and the product is stored in wooden boxes along one wall as a pharmacy of old times. Tables and benches are made of oak, and the hanging lamps are made of borosilicate glass. A glass façade represents transparency, legitimacy and a sort of come out. It makes sure that people know that you are not afraid of anything, that it is ashamed. It's therapy for a lot of people
SPARC, the San Francisco Patient Resource Center, is a nonprofit collective dedicated to providing high quality, lab-tested, affordable cannabis and subsidized health services to its members, many of whom are chronic and terminally ill patients. The architecture strove to convey their socially conscious philosophy by giving the medical cannabis industry a positive presence in the community, with an environment of grace and craft through environmentally sensitive design and inventive detail. The jury saluted the strong social commentary and apothecary-like feel of this beautiful project
