In the Endorphin Republic sports and outdoor equipment shop in Brno you will find a wide range of high-end bicycles, skis and practically all related equipment and clothing. They also run a test centre (where you can try out ski or bike before you buy it) and a professional bike and ski service.
Proven interior design
All this range is presented on an impressive 1300 m2 area. The design of the ER branches was entrusted to the architectural studio deyl-šesták-architekti in the hands of Marek Deyl and Jan Šesták. They decided to use the motif of podiums organically protruding from the floor area, as in the previous branches in Prague.
How it looks in ER Praha Waltrovka
Contract carpets for the shop
In almost the entire shopping area, Fletco COM 1000 woven contract carpets with a thin-stripe surface structure are installed on the floor. Their high durability and ability to withstand even very busy traffic make them the ideal floor covering for these types of areas. The large, irregularly shaped platforms resembling mountains that rise out of the floor are also covered with the same carpet, finished with silver strips on the edges.
Below is a video of world champion trials rider Pepa Dressler driving through the entire ER store:
The colours of all floor coverings are subordinated to the ara purpose - and since the sports equipment on display (bikes, skis and other accessories) is colourful enough, the interior is in muted natural tones of brown and grey, working only with darker or lighter shades of the palette.
The displayed products can thus stand out in all their beauty.
Vinyl in the service area
The back of the shop, where is the service area for technicians to work on bikes and skis, has a different floor covering. Xtreme 2 vinyl in rolls in medium grey was chosen, which is also highly durable but slightly softer than the tightly woven loops of the shop's woven carpet.
