![]() ![]() – Ali Oriaku Hotel Magdalena (Casey Dunn)Ĭlient and interior designer: Bunkhouse Group, Tenaya Hills Adjacent lounges and workspaces are flanked by movable timber walls that allow team members to alter spaces depending on their needs. A minimal reception desk, molded out of rammed earth from local soil, nods to Colorado’s red rock canyons, and a stairway with rows of floor-to-ceiling pine boards conjures the feeling of hiking through a forest. The biophilic color palette of the spaces-including soft tones and warm woods-mimics the surrounding landscape. High ceilings, natural light, and exposed timber beams create airy interiors. The resulting CLT structure echoes the look and feel of the neighboring Rocky Mountains, connecting visitors to the great outdoors through natural colors, textures, and materials. – Keren Dillard EF Education First (David Lauer)Ĭlient and collaborator: EF Architecture & Design StudioĮF Education First, an international school that specializes in experiential learning, looked to Gensler to create a sustainable office in Denver that would embody the company’s ethos and the spirit of Colorado. ![]() The 48,000-square-foot complex includes various social spaces that comfortably host both large and small groups, including a two-story alumni association office, a meeting pavilion, and the newly renovated Forlines House, originally designed by Horace Trumbauer, the architect of much of Duke’s campus.Īdjacent to the neo-Gothic West Campus, the visitors center reflects Duke’s identity as a “university in the forest.” Exposed wood elements featured across the buildings and a main courtyard complement the locally quarried Duke stone and bird-friendly glass paneling that make up the central pavilion. The Karsh Alumni and Visitors Center welcomes people to the Duke University campus with a series of warmly lit courts and pavilions that combine new construction techniques with historical motifs.
