Throughout the execution of this project, I worked as the exterior facade designer. This task included weekly meetings with the University and the state Design Review Board to design and execute a building that ensured and maintained the current University design standards. I was also involved in the design and documentation of the indoor practice facility which included a full size football field and a 300-meter track. The indoor facility included an adjacent weight room, part of the champions center that opened up into the indoor facility.
The facility also included build out space for the CU Sports Medicine and Performance Center, which is open to the public, unique to a collegiate training facility and a great asset to the entire complex
