Pints & Paddle is a 10-court, indoor pickleball facility with an adjacent self-serve taproom, viewing deck, mezzanine seating, outdoor patio, and restaurant in collaboration with Malone’s Bar & Grill in Maple Grove, Minnesota.
The Pints & Paddle team contacted Thielen & Green for concept planning and site programming, which grew into full-service architectural design following site selection, under an integrated approach with Ryan Companies. With Shea Design heading up the interiors, the team created a 33,704 square foot, two-level concept, set right in the heart of Maple Grove.
This project utilized full BIM modeling for early design review, project coordination and clash detection, with a goal to limit field changes and expedite construction timelines.
Design recognition included 2024 MSCA Starr Award Winner for Interior Design: Entertainment/Experiential and 2024 MSCA Starr Award Finalist for New Construction: Retail Single Tenant.
