A sisler structure to the Clark County Government Center, the Regional Transportation Commission and Regional Flood Control District Headquarters (RTC/ RFCD) recapitulates Clark County‘s desert imagery with undulating "canyon" walls and a stone exterior. The curvilinear walls slope outward from the base of the building in an asymmetrical order, to replicate the complex nature of a canyon and to offer a similar spatial experience.
The shape of the structure differs widely from the government center, which is a much more public and therefore much more open building. Only a fifth the size, the RTC/RFCD takes the form of a box canyon, an intimate space that quickly surrounds the visitor in a desert courtyard. The main building entry is from the south side, with the high "canyon" walls shading and sheltering the courtyard for most of the day. At the center of the courtyard is a low fountain of water cascading over sandstone rock.
Covered pedestrian arcades along the southern and eastern facades protect visitors from the harsh desert sun. Native plants, stone mulches and boulders form a desert setting. Canyon imagery is again evoked with vegetation rooted in stone crevices. Goals of energy and water conservation are met with maximum use of natural light within the building by way of law-energy supplementary lighting, plus low-E glass to control solar gain and radiant heat transfer, and rows of trees on the western face of the building shade it from afternoon sun. The RTC/RFCD, the second building to be built on the 38-acre Clark‘County campus, is designed using a structural bay size coordinated with the modular system furniture used by the majority of the tenants. While the prominent facades are curved, most of the building perimeter is created using straight walls based on standard grid spacings.
