Project Summary
The United States Olympic & Paralympic Museum is a history, sports and cultural museum located in the southwest part of downtown Colorado Springs, Colorado.
The museum is a tribute to the Olympic and Paralympic movements with Team USA athletes at the center of the experience. The 60,000 sqft building features 20,000 sqft of galleries, a state-of-the-art theater, event space, and cafe.
Inspired by the energy and grace of the Team USA athletes and the organization’s inclusive values, the building’s dynamic spiraling form allows visitors to descend the galleries in one continuous path. This main organization structure enables the museum to rank amongst the most accessible museums in the world, ensuring visitors with and without disabilities can smoothly share the same common experience.
