Denver Museum of Contemporary Art

Denver's MCA was designed by London-based architect David Adjaye and is a marvel of environmental efficiency.

Great story from 2Modern Design Talk on the museum's construction.

"An environmentally-efficient building. MCA is actively pursuing LEED certification, which would make MCA the first contemporary art museum in the country to achieve such status. Plenty of natural light, 20% of recycled construction content, and the use of light coloured, highly reflective concrete are only some of the points to support the MCA Denver's aim to become the first Gold LEED certified contemporary art museum in the States."
