Recreation Center
Demo projectMeridian Recreation Centre
A neighbourhood sports and swim centre under an exposed glulam roof, funded and programmed with the community.
Demo project — sample content created by Scope to show how the platform works. It does not represent a real Scope client project.
Main concept
Two years of workshops shaped the brief before a line was drawn. The result puts the pool hall and sports hall side by side under one long roof, with the cafe and entry glazed to the street so the building advertises itself simply by being used.
