Timber Sports Hall

‘Elegance through simplicity’
Located on a site adjacent to the school’s sports field the design of the timber High School Sports Hall was based on the relationship between field and gymnasium.
The similarities of these two programmes are expressed through the building’s use of a single cladding material, timber, and mirrored structure and form. The difference in requirements of these programmes, primarily that of scale, is expressed through the difference in scale of the building’s two main forms.
