dispensers, environmentally friendly glassware, whiteboard walls, and touchscreen technology for all three of their meeting rooms. Fletcher and Fischer designed the space themselves with help from talented local craftsmen. Much of the artwork is noise-dampeners in disguise from My Favorite Art Space. Their one-of-a-kind tables and desks were made by Stage One Designs. The illuminated glass-andmetal logo fixture at their reception desk? Kudos to Chroma Studio. Rain Forest Interiors supplied the finishing touches of “living walls” and hundreds of plants. Desk members and office owners personalize their areas with their own unique branding and décor, making the space even more dynamic.
Work with Splashes of Play As you peruse around RTIC, it’s clear everyone stays busy and focused. Fliers promote a CEO exchange and a night of networking around the corner, inviting the public to be part of something bigger than themselves. Inspired by the quote, “A rising tide lifts all boats,” the team holds that when one succeeds, everyone benefits. LaRue and Beeler understand that supporting members’ success can sometimes mean offering logistical business help; at others, touches such as setting up meeting rooms with coffee and sparkling water for clients. Rising Tide Innovation Center balances its cutting-edge designs and hard work with touches of whimsy, including the meeting-room names and attention to details with snacks. They’ve waited all year for candy-pumpkin season and put extensive research into finding perfect mini-pretzels and gummy bears. LaRue, Beeler, and the network of coworking members will welcome you and make you feel at home here. From 9 to 5, this office space can be!
