Untitled metal screen, "Littleton Savings and Loan Building screen" by Robert Propst, 1959. Decorative element attached onto front of former Littleton Savings and Loan Building, located at 1449 W. Littleton Blvd.

"The International Style Littleton Savings and Loan is the work of Joseph Marlow and Louise Marlow, and, as mentioned in the discussion of The Title Guaranty Building, they were Colorado’s premier proponents of the Miesian variant of the International Style. The building’s most distinctive feature is the sunscreen mounted on the second story of the south-facing street side. The metal screen, comprised of an all-over pattern
of interlocking circles, was designed by Robert Propst. Behind and beneath the sunscreen are glass curtain walls. The sides of the building, made of stuccoed masonry, that were originally white, have, on each side at the second-floor level, a row of vertical windows that are widely and evenly spaced. It is unquestionably a major landmark in the Greater West Littleton Boulevard Corridor.
Originally there was a landscape plan by Jane Silverstein Ries, the premier Modernist landscape architect in the region. The plan in addition to plantings included paving, a water feature, and a copper sculpture by screen designer Propst. There was also a monumental illuminated sign on a standard." -- from "Commercial Modernism in the Greater West Littleton Boulevard Corridor, 1950-1980" by Diane Wray Tomasso and Michael Paglia, 2016.

The sunscreen was painted a light purple by building owners, c.2015. The copper sculpture originally placed in front of the building was removed some time before 2000.
