Walker Sports Club Student Workshop
Public & Social Space
Led by Koloni Architecture, the Walker Sports Club Sports and Activity Centre Architecture Workshop explored children’s expectations of sports spaces in their own words and drawings. Athletes and their families contributed their ideas to the architectural design process.
Participants drew their imagined sports spaces and shared preferences for geometric forms, spatial arrangements, colour palettes, materials and atmosphere. Prepared worksheets allowed children to communicate through both drawings and short written responses.
Shared table activities and conversations with families explored the desired experience of the centre alongside its physical programme. The workshop outputs were brought together to inform consideration of the users’ perspective within the architectural proposals.
