Architect for Sport and Leisure Projects

Where sport, people and performance meet

Sport facilities play an important role within communities, supporting active lifestyles and bringing people together.

We design sports environments that balance performance with everyday community use, creating flexible, welcoming spaces that encourage participation at all levels and help improve access to sport within local communities. Our experience spans community facilities, university estates, campus environments and stadium design, often delivered through education, community and nationally significant sport projects. By integrating a range of sporting facilities within schools, campuses and wider community settings, we help create shared environments that are accessible and used by pupils, students, clubs and local communities alike.

Exercise and leisure facilities

Designed to be welcoming, robust and adaptable, these facilities support active lifestyles and help schools and campuses become vibrant community hubs at the heart of their neighbourhoods.

Bringing together multi ‑ sport centres and specialist facilities, they often combine sports halls, gyms, swimming pools, flexible activity spaces and treatment rooms. Our multi ‑ use sports halls are designed with flexibility in mind, allowing them to support assemblies, performances and community events alongside sport. Responding to recognised sporting standards, these spaces balance daylight, materiality and environmental comfort to support high ‑ quality sport, everyday movement, learning and wellbeing for all ages.

Stadium & hospitality facilities

For us, sport is about more than performance. It is about creating places that bring people together, build loyalty and generate memorable shared experiences.

We design spectator, performance and hospitality spaces that capture the energy of live sport whilst working seamlessly for players, staff and supporters alike. Our experience includes nationally significant venues such as Hampden Park and stadium developments across Scotland, giving us a strong understanding of the operational, commercial and fan experience requirements these projects demand. Well-designed hospitality spaces can support clubs long beyond matchday, creating opportunities for events, conferencing, community use and wider commercial activity. Through considered architecture, interior design and materiality, we create venues that strengthen identity, enhance the visitor experience and continue to support clubs throughout the year.

Sustainability

Drawing on our wider sustainability expertise, we deliver high-performing sport and leisure facilities that balance environmental ambitions with long-term performance. Often operating intensively throughout the day and across all seasons, these buildings demand efficient design, durable materials and carefully considered environments that are built to perform and designed to last.
