A study exploring the potential configuration and site plan for a new Nevada State Supreme Court in Carson City, Nevada. The proposed building would sit between the historic State Capitol Building and the State Legislature representing the three branches of government.
The plan was organized around a central rotunda between the Courtroom one one side and the Library on the other. A forecourt featured an op[en plaza above a basement parking garage with a sunken courtyard that featured a map of the State of Nevada on its floor.
The proposed Supreme Court building formed part of a campus of State institutions including the State Capitol and State Legislature Buildings.
