Serra cannabis dispensary in Portland features greenhouse-like display cases

Portland studios OMFGCo and JHL Design have designed a minimal interior for this store that sells recreational marijuana.

Serra – a self-proclaimed "modern drugist" – opened in July 2016, after the state of Oregon legalised the recreational use of cannabis products in October 2015.

The owners describe it as "an experiential and curated cannabis retail space that rethinks, redefines, and sets the bar for progressive pot culture".

The brand's flagship space is located in a historic building in the Old Town area of Portland, which was built in 1889.

Serra is the Italian word for greenhouse, and this is reflected in the design of the shop's display cases.

Serra also has a store in Portland's Belmont area, and another in the city of Eugene – about two hours drive south.

As marijuana legalisation continues to spread, designers are tapping into the booming

market – creating products from bongs and pipes to a home weed-growing system.
