Colorado Running Company
Why
Colorado Running Company is a locally owned, 15-year-old company. It is located in the University Village Colorado shopping center in Colorado Springs. RTA worked with the owner of the store to create an updated, 3,000-square-foot shopping environment that is rustic and contemporary.
How
RTA’s ability to model the client’s interior space accurately in Revit (a 3D building information modeling computer program) gave the Colorado Running Company owners an opportunity to explore the finished space before it was built. This way, they could view their tree-like display fixture with surfboard-shaped shelves and make adjustments to their liking.
What
In late June of 2012, Colorado Springs experienced the Waldo Canyon Fire which burned 29 square miles of forest land and destroyed 346 local homes. Because the customers of Colorado Running Company are extremely engaged with the outdoor recreational environment of the Front Range, RTA was given the opportunity to utilize salvaged lumber from the Waldo Canyon burn area throughout the interior décor.
