Rochester Athletic Club

GGI supplied ¼” Diamant low-iron glass with Alice® Direct-to-Glass Printing to support the renovation of the Rochester Athletic Club in Rochester, Minnesota. Fabiano Design led the renovation, while Ford Metro Glass completed the installation. GGI’s custom decorative glass enhanced brand identity and visual appeal across multiple fitness and hospitality areas.

The project incorporated a mix of back-painted and non-back-painted digitally imaged panels, creating visual depth and design flexibility. GGI collaborated with the design team to match brand colors accurately and reproduce the Rochester Athletic Club (RAC) logo using varied opacities for a dimensional, layered effect.

The renovation included updated Group Exercise and Spinning Studios on the Upper Level and refreshed Free Weights, Stretching, and Large Group Exercise Rooms on the Lower Level. Fabiano Design also reconfigured the existing café to support a new layout, expanded menu offerings, and more flexible seating for club members and guests, including a new meeting space for staff and visitors.

The GGI team collaborated with the lighting vendor to help coordinate the placement of an LED light tube integrated behind the glass—enhancing the design intent and bringing the graphics to life with illumination. This project is a showcase of GGI’s ability to deliver tailored, design-forward decorative glass solutions that enhance the user experience in fitness, hospitality, and lifestyle environments.
