rise of C.O.A.T.I.
“CO.A.T.I is a nod to Colorado Springs’ rebellious spirit, a call to the lost boys, and an invitation to challenge everything.”
with our first commercial design, we desired to embody the spirit of COATI while paying homage to the historical significance of this building. The exterior facade is the first nod to a nonconformist design that plays with metal to create unique curves, a feature you will notice throughout this gathering space.

more unique seating in the rear of the building looks directly at the proposed bar in the back.
the eclectic and complimentary layout creates a great contrast to the neon signs and organics scattered across the brick building. we were happy to bring our design to such a cool historic piece of local culture!
