According to Merriam-Webster, in the early 1920's a woman named Josephine Dickson grew tired of trying to wrap her cuts with bulky, clumsy gauze. This inspired her husband, Earle, to invent what became a simpler, sleeker alternative: sterilized, pre-made adhesive bandages. The Band-aid was born, and is still protected under trademark as a noun but the adjective is generic. The adjective is used in such phrases as a "band-aid" solution.
There are other brand names or trademarks that are used in everyday communication such as ping-pong or dominoe.
NorthCreek as a brand name is quickly becoming an adjective for unique luxury lifestyle living. The phrase, "a NorthCreek feel" conjures images of extraordinary architecture, custom finishes, Colorado red sandstone, walkability, toney shopping, fine dining and urban living. The "NorthCreek feel" is twenty- four hour concierge services and friendly neighbors. NorthCreek means "hip" with rooftop terraces and edgy design, walls of windows that capture mountain and city views.
To be very "NorthCreek-ish" is the new trend in getting back to the city, getting your urban on, getting back the groove.
