Athletics
Providing appropriate athletic facilities to meet the evolving needs of students, college athletes, and community residents is a very demanding task. Our team of landscape architects understands these challenges. Confluence has significant experience in the design and planning of a wide range of single and multi-sport athletic facilities and improvements.
Our approach is tailored to meet each project’s particular needs, and typically involves a strong analytical approach to understanding the proposed project site and its surrounding context. The master planning process can also involve assisting in identifying short-term and long-term needs, exploring multiple design concepts and alternatives, and developing phased implementation scenarios.
Whether designing a new facility or renovating and expanding an existing complex, our design recommendations integrate flexibility of use, ease of maintenance, and sustainable solutions.
