    David Adjaye's first US commission, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Denver, is still on target to receive LEED Gold Certification once it is finished, making it the first LEED Certified museum in the country. The 27,000 sq.ft museum will feature a roof garden to be designed by Artists Kim Dickey and landscape architect Karla Dakin, which should increase the insulation levels and help stabilize the temperature in the building. It will also use 40 percent less energy than a standard building. Check out the renderings, created by Studio Yli Suvanto.
