Testimonials

  • “The 3 Dots Design team made the vision for our newest store come to life. They felt like members of our Gazelle Sports team throughout every step of the project. We are truly grateful for their expertise, attention to detail and passion for our industry. We are currently working on our second project with the 3 Dots team. They are caring, knowledgeable, adaptable and passionate about what they do.”

    ~ Jen Brummit - CEO, Gazelle Sports

  • "I’m good at running my shop, but I know my limits. When I decided to open our 4th store I knew I had a great location but I wanted this one to be an improved version of what the other 3 locations look like. The team at 3 Dots Design was great to work with. They are the pros in design and laying out the store and they allowed us to continue to focus on being the local pros at serving our customers a great experience once they’re in store. Our store looks fresh and new compared to other new retail experiences we see. Thank you to 3 Dots Design for doing such a great job in making our store more successful than we forecast."

    ~Ken “Woody” Smith - Owner of Richardson Bike Mart

Their ability to design and source just about anything I can dream up has really been the best part for me. Retail stores have to be unique, fun and entertaining along with providing the necessary products and services and we only trust 3 Dots Design to help us achieve that in our stores.”

    ~ Frank DeJulius - Owner of Fleet Feet at Fifty West
