So...me and a friend want to open up a bouldering gym, however for the past few months we have not been able to get a design done at all. I think we are both not really creative or there is something else missing but I figured maybe its time to ask for help. We have been using SketchUp to design stuff, but it hasnt got far. Needless to say, we are still bit away from any final design.

If anyone thinks they can help us, someone who knows how to use SketchUp and is experienced climber is what we are looking for. If you think you can get something done for us, we are willing to pay for the design and for the expertise.

So..let me know, and I can give you measurement of the warehouse that we are looking to rent..and basically if anyone has any advice, i would much appreciate it.

Thanks

What I want tho is a full gym design done, so things like

• Campus Board
• Finger Board

• Warm Up Area
• Warm Up Wall

• 45 Degree, 30 Degree Wall ect..

And then once there is a design either in SketchUp or some other software, I can get plans done by a drafts person and give it to the builder to give me a quote.

I think the is a way I need to go..maybe I am wrong!

For ideas just get on google and have a look at other gyms and there setups!

Agree.

Look up

The Climbing Works

The Climbing Academy

The Depot

City Bloc

I'm sure if you contacted any of the above they would provide consulting services on design (for a small fee!).
