Avfuel-Branded FBO, Colorado Jetcenter (KCOS), Wraps Up Interior Design Project
/
Colorado jetCenter, the Avfuel-branded FBO at Colorado Springs Municipal Airport, finished its interior renovation project, welcoming guests to a revamped facility focused on comfort and security.
While the terminal was always a functional space, the new design transcends utility, providing an open, inviting space for business to transact and crew to relax.
“We’ve received stellar feedback from our customers concerning the final product,” said Colorado jetCenter general manager, Aaron Wood. “They’re just as excited as we are about this upgrade. The new look and feel of our FBO is inviting. It allows us to do our job with a high level of service—as always—but in a space our guests can truly enjoy.”
The renovation focused on the common areas of the FBO terminal. As part of the project, the FBO moved walls to open up the terminal for expanded comfort areas and relocated the customer service counter to enhance both operational service and security. The ceiling was heightened with new grids and tiles, and LED lighting was installed throughout the facility. The space now includes a coffee bar, a ramp-viewing area, a TV lounge and pilot lounges. The crème space with dark, neutral carpeting is trimmed with accents of natural Cherrywood, black granite and stainless steel appliances for a warm, yet modern aesthetic that exudes class.
The all-new furniture—the last feature to be installed—adds comfort while complementing the space’s style with natural Cherrywood and pops of burgundy.
In addition to these refined finishes, the FBO offers new complimentary beverage options. While cold beverages are up for grabs in the facility’s conference room, the FBO installed a new water fountain that features a water bottle filler. To encourage its use and eco-consciousness, KCOS is giving away high-end reusable water bottles for guests to keep.
“The norm has been to give away disposable bottles of water when customers visit,” said Wood. “But we’ve always had this old water fountain original to the building that produced high-quality, ice-cold water. In an effort to be a little more eco-friendly, and allow guests to leave with a gift they can use time and again, we thought it would be a great opportunity to install the new water fountain system.”
With one project finished, Colorado jetCenter is already looking forward to another. The development’s next phase is to renovate the facility’s restrooms this fall and winter, and then move on to exterior considerations.
