Alliance for Sustainable Colorado

Working closely with the Alliance for Sustainable Colorado, Gensler developed a design concept for a high-performance renovation of the nonprofit’s existing office space located in downtown Denver. Responding to the client’s desire to create a space that would attract and retain tenants looking to facilitate sustainability through collaboration, Gensler designed a reimagined multi-tenant, nonprofit center that directly links all tenant groups to the advancement of sustainability. To achieve this, Gensler created an open, healthy, flexible and light-filled space that would promote the cross-pollination of ideas while encouraging spontaneous interactions among tenants and visitors. The building’s original entry was restored to create a strong street presence along a major thoroughfare, while a new lobby design offers tenants and visitors opportunities for interaction, as well as a strong visual introduction to the nonprofit’s brand and mission.
