The Colorado construction team built a steel and grating urban classroom on the farm inLakewook,Coloradocompleted. The Colorado Building Workshop employs students in their final year at theCU-denver.

An urban classroom as a place where people want to learn more about agriculture and farming, further training for anyone interested in this topic. The architectural team placed a steel grating as a covering mechanism on the surface of the walls and ceilings of this structure to prevent vandalism. This makes it look dynamic and modern. The size of the location allows enough space for two parties at the same time: those who sit behind their office and those who are taught in the classroom.
East and west sides
The omission of secondary supports is supported by the steel lattice bar like a kind of skin on the structure, which bears the entire load. An urban classroom with a vertical roof attachment, which appears increasingly opaque to visitors as they approach the facility. TheTerrainis divided into three stations: a steel drain that leads directly to the washing station and aPflanzenbeet, which sets the boundaries between the interior and the entrance area. A portable table and skylight define the eastern side of the classroom, while the foundation for a future amphitheater and its outdoor seating define the western side.
