318 Canyon Ave | Fort Collins, CO

318 Canyon was an existing building constructed in the ’80s that had little identity other than it’s prominent corner location and curved walls that addressed the streets.

The facade was very flat with no delineation in the vertical plane but glass and brick. Our first challenge was to redesign the entry to more clearly establish its’ importance. A circular steel canopy was added to reinforce the curved glass block wall and the ground plane was redesigned to include curved seating and landscaping to direct visitors to the entrance.
