QPR state-of- the-art


completed


sustainable Heston training ground


Work has completed on Queens Park Rangers’ new state-of-the-art training ground, as designed by Studio Zoppini Architects The 27-acre site sits within


the green belt, adjacent to M4 and residential areas and Cranford College. It was imperative that the design was sensitive to its location whilst providing an aspirational environment for all the representatives of the club and as a


positive asset to the local community. The design adopts an extruded form, which enables internal zoning and spatial interest to key areas. The entrance is secluded, whilst the main social spaces of the gym and dining areas open up to views across the practice pitches and the surrounding countryside. The careful selection of materials integrates simplicity and economy while creating a subtle identity for the club.


Alessandro Zoppini, owner


at Studio Zoppini Architects, said: ‘It was important that the design provides a welcoming and healthy atmosphere for the athletes and staff, to generate a positive and supportive environment for the improvement of performance and a collective endeavour. In a similar way the building


performs to high standards.’ studiozoppini.it


Hopkins Architect’s new indoor courts for the All England Lawn Tennis Club


A new state-of-the-art indoor tennis facility, designed by Hopkins Architects for the All England Lawn Tennis Club, has now opened to its members. Part of a wider masterplan for


the club’s long term development, the new courts at Somerset Road will help ensure that Wimbledon remains the finest stage in world tennis, maximising the experience for members, visitors and players throughout the year. Located opposite the club’s main site on the other side of Somerset Road, the project offers six new indoor courts, six new external clay courts, a members’ bar and changing areas. The new building replaces the club’s previous covered courts and relocates the clay courts to create a coherent, world-class facility. hopkins.co.uk
