Redesign Your School Athletic Pavilion | 2014 National High School Architecture Competition #196
|Our schools current “Athletic pavilion” isn't very pretty; it isn't even the most useful. It blends into the background and, doesn't have much functionality except for a tennis and badminton. I would like to create an atmosphere of exercise and fun. I would like to cut down on crowding in school. It could be used as a space for people to hang out during the day, eat lunch and exercise. I would love to include a pool, or some aquatic space. Maybe even a field where you could play baseball, soft ball, or soccer. There could be an inside pool and an open field. It could affect our culture by improving the overall exercise level of the people. With exercise bring on dopamine, which will bring up the overall happiness of the culture. With a better athletic pavilion it can increase GPA because you will be motivated to work more. An ideal space for this pavilion is actually the same spot as our current pavilion. I think it will be a good place because it is close but is a short walk between the school and the pavilion, almost a warm up before you to your athletics.
