Architecture
"Forge is shaped by River North Art District's aging industrial buildings, vibrant urban art, premiere multi-model transportation, and rapidly growing niche dining and retail. It exemplifies the creative energy and grit of Denver's 21st century makers, thinkers, artists, and builders through building form, materiality, and programming."
Stantec, Architect

Interior Design
"The interior design of Forge blends raw, urban materials with sophisticated elements, reflecting Denver's roots and modern elegance. Bold, energetic artwork fills the space, with sweeping brushstrokes in one room and a molten mirror in another."
Rodrigo Vargas Design
