The main hall provides space for all major sports with an upper level viewing gallery. Two glass-backed squash courts and changing rooms with a fitness studio are located in the two-storey section built on the upper level of the site.

The photographs illustrate the main sports hall cut into the steeply sloping site to reduce the visual impact of this large building on the existing school which overlooks the site. Daylighting to the sports hall and squash courts is achieved by diffuse indirect roof-lighting over the central viewing gallery to avoid glare to the users.

 
Northwood College
Northwood College
Northwood College had a design and estimate from others for a new stand-alone indoor swimming pool which was already 50% over its budget. We proposed an alternative design and location, closer to the School's existing changing facilities. Eventually we were able to upgrade these facilities and provide a low maintenance, high quality, 25 metre indoor poo! and full one-court sports hall, with a shared viewing area, within the School's budget i.e. for only two thirds of the cost of the previous stand-alone pool.
