Brady Exploration School

Lakewood, Colorado / Addition and Renovation

ARCHITECT | Alan Ford Architects

This project included the construction of a new single-story addition spanning 970 square feet, which will serve as a security vestibule and lobby area. In addition to the new entrance, key features of the project included installation of a new elevator for improved accessibility, development of a new architectural concrete entry plaza, and comprehensive upgrades to finishes throughout the existing building, which has a total square footage of 43,285 square feet. Specific enhancements include: new ceilings, carpet, and paint throughout the facility, upgraded fire alarm system with voice evacuation capabilities, new lighting fixtures in existing classrooms, and installation of new exterior windows.

This project aims to not only upgrade the functionality and safety of the building but also to create a welcoming environment for all visitors and occupants.
