Following an intensive site analysis, the design team developed a solution to support both students and athletes. The design incorporated new training facilities, sports medicine, locker rooms, team lounges, and other athlete-support facilities within a compelling addition to Camp Randall Stadium and renovated space under the nearby indoor varsity training field house, known as the McClain Center.
The project included a new tunnel to the stadium field for the football team, as well as a scoreboard, artificial turf, and a translucent roof for the McClain Center.
A three-story addition to Camp Randall created a new grand entry linking the three facilities and features a hall of fame and celebratory “WOW” room, academic classrooms, study lounges, and faculty offices.
Rendered in brick, stone, and steel, with an arcaded façade modeled after a classic arena, the academic center communicates the primary importance of learning to students and parents.
