"Much like the ecosystems in the desert Southwest, the University of Arizona is an ecosystem with many different facets that are interdependent on one another.  The work that will take place at the ENR2 building represents the very best of our University." - UA President Ann Weaver Hart.

For more than a century, Old Main has been the face of the University of Arizona. The oldest structure on campus - and one of the oldest public buildings in Arizona, the two-story structure has undergone a major face-lift.  Workers replaced the original metal roof and sagging veranda. They reinforced the floors with steel. New heating and air-conditioning systems were installed on the second floor. The exterior style isn't changed, but the interior contains several modern touches.The restored Old Main includes offices for UA President.

The HSEB creates an iconic identity for the University of Arizona School of Medicine on the Phoenix Biomedical Campus and responds to its urban locale and desert environment. The Arizona desert climate and need for reduced energy consumption informed much of the design.

Inspired by the iconic canyon formations found throughout Arizona, the facade reinterprets stratified earth layers revealed over time as a copper sunscreen protecting the exterior building enclosure from direct solar exposure. 

Both an expansion and renovation of the existing College of Optical Sciences facilities, the Meinel building includes teaching and research laboratories, six floors of offices, discussion areas, conference rooms, and an auditorium. The 47,000 square-foot cast-in-place concrete structure, wrapped on three-sides in copper-alloy panels, harmonizes with the largely brick vocabulary of the campus while reflecting the ethereal quality of the wide Arizona sky. The facade, however, is merely a prelude for what awaits inside - where light and architecture seamlessly combine to create moments of pure awe.
