Extension of a existing sports complex composed of a 1000 m² multi purpose hall, raked spectator seating, changing rooms, firstaid facilities, storage space for existing external sporting areas.
Project
The site is heavily wooded with mature trees. In order tominimise the impact we chose to set out the building in the least densely wooded area. This gave a 45° orientation to the building with respect to the existing site plan and a more direct orthoganal relationship with the main approach road to the centre. The new glazed timber structured façade thus becoming the welcoming backdrop to a new entrance courtyard. In order to limit the visual impact of the built volume a plante droof is rolled out from the forest floor up over the hall and new entrance situated at the interface with the existing buildings.
