The Creative Engineers of Studio NYL

摘要

Colorado School of Mines, a small engineering university in the old-west town of Golden, has never been known for its architectural legacy. Most of the school's buildings, even the historic ones, are unremarkable. But one stands out: Marquez Hall, home of the petroleum engineering department. Designed by the Seattle office of Bohlin Cywinski Jackson (BCJ) with Denver-based partner Anderson Mason Dale Architects, the building dazzles with a gravity-defying cantilevered roof that extends 60 feet over a glass-enclosed entrance lobby.
