Build Interior Design Awards 2017

2017 Interior Design Awards Build 29 ishop Gorman High School is often ranked as having one of the top ten high school athletic programs in the country. In order to bolster their reputation as a sports powerhouse, the school established the Athletic Training Center, an imposing two-story facility at the south end of the football stadium. Although not open to the general public, the center’s fitness programs are available to students, faculty and alumni. The focal point of the facility is the first floor’s, 12,000 square foot state-of-the- art weight and fitness room, which includes fitness and strength conditioning equipment as well as a nutrition bar. An expansive wall of glass on the north side of the room provides an unobstructed view of the stadium. Also located on the first floor are coaches’ offices, an eighty seat, tiered lecture hall, a training center and collegiate-level locker rooms. The training center provides treatment tables, a whirlpool, a cold plunge pool and a conditioning pool. Finally, a two-story lobby facilitates access to the second floor and provides after-hours access to the lecture hall. The second floor is primarily dedicated to a divisible reception space that connects to a long balcony overlooking the field, permitting alumni and faculty to view sporting events. On one side of the reception space is a large meeting room, that can be incorporated into the reception space for larger events. On the other side is a full-service kitchen for the reception space, which includes a dedicated service elevator to the first floor. The interior finish palette was selected to reinforce the original design concept to promote team unity and enhance overall performance of the athletes. Keeping in mind the high traffic use of the space, finishes were chosen based on their ability to perform. Durability was key in making those selections. On the exterior, a massive LED display screen is incorporated into the north elevation, facing the football field. The “G” logo is also replicated in the buildings concrete tilt-up panels and perforated metal panels on the east and west elevations contain iconographic sporting images. The concrete panels are atypical for the campus but are integrated into the school’s architectural vernacular through the continuation of the natural stone cladding and paint colors of the existing school.
