University of Colorado Denver, LynxConnect

LynxConnect is a one-stop shop at the University of Colorado Denver that provides resources and individualized support for opportunities and experiences outside the classroom. It houses four university offices: Career Center; Experiential Learning Center; Global Education: Study Abroad; and Undergraduate Research.

An early demolition phase at the existing theater space revealed hidden features of the building that were not readily visible during initial investigation. Original windows had been an exterior feature, but were covered on the inside; they were opened up to flood the space with natural light. The existing mezzanine was enlarged to create additional square footage. The open mezzanine provides additional areas for impromptu gatherings and interactions. It also features the “Sky Box,” a floating glass conference room.

The new lobby now connects multiple levels via stairs and bleacher seating, and the extensive use of glass provides visual connectivity throughout. LynxConnect is a hub for experiences beyond the classroom. It offers private and open offices, conference rooms, private meeting rooms, multiple choices in collaboration areas, and a break room.
