The design solution uses a hierarchy of architectural forms to clearly convey the front entrance and to fracture a larger building into smaller, more residential proportions. Detailed as interlocking pieces, they are assembled to accentuate the clerestory tower at the building entry.

The building’s architectural style represents a modern interpretation of a Colorado territorial style.
These proportional pieces are delineated using alternating colors that help define each section. Detailed as interlocking pieces, they are assembled to accentuate the clerestory tower at the building entry. The rear and sides are articulated in the same manner while also resolving the functional demands of the building within the site’s unusual shape.
