Sodra Tennis Center, Sweden. Prototype for Tennis-Centers sized to mid-sized swedish citiy employing timber as its main structural system. To accomodate for local variations in site and program, the design sets forth an iconic form, adaptive and scalable, intended to delight the local community, while raising the profile of Swedish tennis and celebrating the craft of regional wood construction. A wood shed, sheathed in plywood, frames a performative façade that acts as both billboard and beacon. The main façade, stained green, is inset behind a gigantic net to create a public porch and set a dramatic tone for the theatre of sport.
