Skyla Central Branch

Charlotte, North Carolina

Completed in 2022, the Skyla Central Branch is a flagship banking environment designed to express the credit union’s evolving brand. Located along Central Avenue, the two-story branch combines transparent glass façades, warm materials, and a prominent street-front presence to create an open and welcoming connection with the surrounding neighborhood.

The project redefines the modern banking experience as more than a transaction. Natural light, clear visibility, intuitive circulation, and an approachable material palette come together to create a financial environment that builds trust, supports customer service, and strengthens Skyla’s presence within the Charlotte community.

Design Approach

Liquid Design’s approach focused on balancing transparency, accessibility, and brand identity. Expansive glazing frames views toward downtown Charlotte and brings daylight deep into the interior, while warm, textural materials ground the modern architecture. Parking and vehicle circulation were discreetly organized to preserve the building’s pedestrian connection and strong Central Avenue presence.
