This design thesis is for the Tide and Turf Athletic Centre, I wish to design a structure that celebrates the town’s sporting heritage. The design will intergrate a minimal yet modern design feature alongside features from key structures in the surrounding area. I aim to create an inclusive environment where various generations and athletes can engage with sports and its history in a more meaningful way.

The concept of Past, Present, and Future serves as the foundation for the design. The gatehouse is to be utilised as the focal point, symbolizing a gateway in which Visitors begin their journey at the open planned entrance and cafe area which is seamlessly connected to the gatehouse.
