John Boak created 29 symbols related to the area's history and incorporated them into the fabric of the building. There are: two large aluminum glyphs on the copper roof; bronze glyphs embedded in the concrete pathways; corten steel glyphs embedded in the stone fascia of the building. The thermopane windows at the entrance have glyphs sandblasted on the interior surface of the glass. The slate floor has slate glyphs embedded in the stone. A porcelain-enamel-on-steel map of Colorado is set into an interior stone wall. Signage at the entrance has a large bronze plate with the Rider glyph cut into it.
