Natural Grocers National Rollout

Starting in 2009, Vega architecture led the prototype creation and national rollout for Natural Grocers by Vitamin Cottage. Over that time, we helped them grow from a handful of local stores through becoming a publicly traded company, to having over 160 stores across 20 states. We developed a process that ran from due diligence through opening that allowed us to develop the projects with unmatched speed and quality, all the while developing unique designs that met the design requirements of the municipality.

Warehouse + Industrial Food Production

VEGA was hired to design a 110,000sf warehouse and industrial food processing facility. This project included SAP linked racking, combustible dust controls, large walk-in refrigeration and freezers and clean room standards, in addition to office and facility space.

Cultura Craft Chocolate

Cultura Chocolate is an incredible shop that celebrates the Mexican chocolate tradition and creates some of the greatest chocolate we’ve had the honor to try. Our goal was to reflect the culture and care that is taken in every step of this process into the architecture and experience of the space. More carefully sourced and crafted chocolate, you will not find.

AVIANO coffee | Cherry Creek

VEGA was hired to design this iconic coffee house in Cherry Creek to celebrate the process of making coffee and to remove traditional barriers between the client and the barista. Custom from top to bottom, each section of the production area was meticulously planned with function, theater, process and community in mind.

Lowenstein Theater, Retail and Parking

This project combined the renovation of the historic Lowenstein theater with a new parking garage, retail and theater. This provided a hub for the arts by creating a space and community for the legendary Tattered Cover bookstore, Twist & Shout music and a new theater for the Denver Film festival.
