SkyView Academy, located in Highlands Ranch, Colorado, took its roots from an unlikely and seemingly challenging existing environment – a former Home Depot building. While the existing warehouse space provided its set of challenges for the design- build team of SLATERPAULL Architects and JHL Constructors, it also offered a spectacular canvas for a charter school. The Design Concept was arrived at through a collaborative process of meetings with members of the client, design and construction teams. The over-riding idea was to create a dynamic educational experience by using building blocks of material, color and translucency to enliven the volume of the large warehouse space.
