LAZZARA CENTER FOR ORAL AND FACIAL HEALTH
University of Colorado Health Sciences Center, Aurora CO

The Lazzara building was to reflect the school’s mission to be the premier provider of oral healthcare, while staying within a strict budget. The contemporary architecture takes advantage of impressive views and ample daylight for interior spaces. Planes of saturated color play against horizontal and vertical wood panels to create warm accents.

We were challenged to work within the State Corrections Industries to identify contemporary furnishings to accent the crisp architectural backdrop. Modular furniture was used even in the dental labs. The intent was to create a dynamic, inviting space that would allow learning and life to happen.
