About The redesigned lobby space caters to contemporary tenants, prioritizing activation through a harmonious blend of seclusion and openness, nature-inspired elements, diverse materials, and thoughtfully scaled proportions. To infuse a touch of modernity into the traditional setting, Japanese textured black clay tile was introduced, creating a backdrop for verdant plant life, inviting wooden seating, and opulent jewel-toned fabrics. The lobby now serves as a versatile area for social gatherings and serene respites, offering glimpses into local Colorado culture and landscape with curated artifacts, reading materials, and a captivating spherical installation crafted by a Denver-based artist.
