We deliver flexible design solutions that meet the complex requirements of today’s leisure and sports facilities.

Sports and leisure facilities are amongst the most demanding environments to design due to the variations in climate conditions and physical wear and tear.

By taking a multi-disciplinary approach we deliver
high-quality venues. These include rugby stadia, athletics tracks, theatres and cultural buildings that meet the comfort, safety and performance needs of all users. We are also experienced in designing for modern data communications and broadcast facilities.

Our specialist disciplines include energy-saving measures and ensuring the security of people and assets.
