Growth Fund Office BuildingIgnacio, Colorado

Commissioned by the Southern Ute Indian Tribe, the building is a state- of-the-art, fully-finished, office building. The three- story structure is fronted by a circular drive that is landscaped with native trees and grasses. Designed to gently step into the hill, its concave shape creates a sheltered outdoor space.

The building's interior houses: offices for three tribal departments, conference rooms, cutting-edge audio-visual, fiber optic equipment, and data storage facilities.

Building offices radiate from the light-filled courtyard that rises three-and-a-half stories to the roof. Cherry wood accents and etched glass panels accentuate the elegance of this building.
