The Healthpeak Properties Offices project, located on the 8th floor of the 50 Fifty S. Syracuse building in Denver, CO, presented an opportunity for Colorado Hardscapes to demonstrate their expertise in polished concrete installations.  Working alongside general contractor Boots Construction and Acquilano Interior Architecture, Colorado Hardscapes successfully achieved the client’s vision using Bomanite’s Modena Monolithic System.

Given the client’s desire for a sleek, minimalistic look with uniform aggregate exposure, the existing floors posed a challenge.  Polished concrete does not typically guarantee uniformity and working with an already-used floor added complexity. To meet these requirements, 5,597 square feet of Bomanite Modena Monolithic in Bomanite Gray color was installed, offering a consistent, polished finish while maintaining the architectural appeal.

The project also required innovative solutions to navigate existing conditions.  The space’s recessed elevator lobby and bathrooms needed to be filled with 1-inch repair mortar before the Modena application.  Additionally, as the office space had no interior walls built at the time, forming was required around all areas except the elevator room and bathrooms, with the Modena installation extended by an additional 4-8 inches along where future walls would be placed.  This unique approach ensured a seamless and precise final look once the walls were constructed.

The floors were polished to an 800-grit, Level-3 finish, striking the perfect balance between aesthetic appeal and slip resistance.  To honor existing expansion joints, aluminum strip inlays were added throughout, contributing to a clean, professional appearance that complements the modern office environment.

Colorado Hardscapes’ previous relationships with Boots Construction and Acquilano Interior Architecture played a key role in the project’s success.  Early collaboration included various sample presentations, leading to the selection of the Bomanite Modena Monolithic System, which aligned well with the design vision and budget constraints. This proactive engagement resulted in Colorado Hardscapes being listed in the final specifications, ultimately securing the project.

The completed floors offer a durable, visually appealing surface that exceeded the client’s expectations, providing a polished concrete solution that enhances the overall look and feel of the office space.  This project showcases the versatility and quality of Bomanite’s polished concrete systems and the skilled craftsmanship of Colorado Hardscapes.
