Whole Foods Market at Highland Village
This 37,000 sq. ft. Whole Foods Market showcases natural Lueders Limestone, quarried just west of the DFW Metroplex, as well as stone accents imported from Jerusalem. Featuring modern Hill Country style, the design combines warm, rich materials with metal accents to create a unique façade. O’Brien Architects offered the depth of insight needed to successfully blend this corner development with the rest of the site. The store marks the entry of the upscale, natural grocer into the Denton County market and features such firsts for the brand as a dedicated, handmade sausage bar with 25 varieties and a cornbread station.
