The design of the Brigade and Battalion Headquarters (BBHQ) responds to the tradition red brick character of Fort Carson, while at the same time reflecting the contemporary nature of today’s Army in terms of a simple, elegant corporate headquarters. Balancing requirements for anti-terrorism force protection and LEED certification, the facility is focused on a major lobby entry point transparent to a courtyard around which the building is organized. The BBHQ is first LEED-NC Gold project for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. RNL, as part of a design-build team with Hensel Phelps, was awarded this project following a design competition.
