Redesign Your School Athletic Pavilion | 2014 National High School Architecture Competition #264
|Since I attend and online school I do not have a school athletic center to redesign, but I do have plenty of other athletic centers in the area to draw from. My plan is to look at athletic centers in the area, and see what works well, and what needs to change. I will then draw from my research, and design an athletic center that could be built for a local high school. (My personal goal is to eventually design a physical school for my virtual school. It would accompany the athletic center I am designing.)
I want to make a modern, functional, versatile and comfortable athletic center that addresses many of the issues of high school athletic centers, and expounds upon their strengths.
