Colorado Doorways Featured Project, December 2008 - University of Colorado Denver Research Complex 2

1800 LarimerColorado's growing medical technology and research industry recently welcomed its latest addition, the Univeristy of Colorado Denver's Research Complex 2 (RC2). The 11-story tower was designed to accommodate researchers from the School of Medicine and the School of Pharmacy and is the second of two companion research buildings on the Anschutz Medical Campus.

RC2 features a blue glass and aluminum wall facing east toward the courtyard and brick on the laboratory side. The office side is open, accessible and inviting. The laboratory side consists of rose brick with a simple structural frame expression in the window openings.

The new 11-story building supports various clinical and basic science research. Laboratory configurations range from wet bench to more instrument-oriented facilities. A full complement of research support spaces and core labs are designed to foster interaction and communication.

RC2 features a coffee shop on the ground floor, two-story corner break rooms joining adjacent lab floors and numerous daylit conference rooms, designed to facilitate communication and collaboration among researchers. A 4,000-sq-ft divisible conference room, located on the second floor, connects directly via an enclosed walkway to the two auditoriums and prefunction space in RC1, forming a genuine conference center for the research complex.

An outdoor amphitheater and courtyard formed by RC1 and RC2 offers an ideal space for casual gatherings and formal campus events.

Colorado Doorways continues to be the premier supplier of doors, architectural hardware and access control system for this project and other medical facilities and we are proud to have taken part in this growing facility.
