VISUAL ARTS COMPLEX
The CU Visual Arts Complex is a 180,000-square-foot creative hub housing art studios, classrooms, offices, an auditorium, and a world-class art museum.
Design decisions throughout the building thoughtfully balanced functional requirements with aesthetic considerations. With its unique needs, the Art Museum features lighting, HVAC systems, materials, and finishes selected per museum-grade standards that support the institution's inspiring mission.
Upon completion, the Visual Arts Complex achieved LEED Gold certification.

"Art Space of the Year...Both handsome and highly functional, the 25,000-square-foot structure allows the museum to appropriately showcase its growing permanent collection and host major touring exhibitions for the first time." - Denver Post
