Photo of set of commercial shoot.

In April 2012, Seattle-based advertising and public relations agency GreenRubino shot a commercial for Columbia Bank using ISB as the set.

ISB’s bold connectivity walls captured the producers’ imaginations. We were delighted to see the commercial on air (finally). The blue couch, which appears in every Columbia Bank commercial, looks pretty great with our wallpaper. Here’s the ad:
