IDEOLOGY | What is the Third Place at the intersec

IDEOLOGY | What is the Third Place at the intersection of Sport and Community?

Whether we are designing local community facilities or large-scale stadia, we see the integration of the Third Place Thinking™ concept as opportunities in our design work.

From nationally driven infrastructure based on legacy and the ‘mega-event', regional/state facilities driven by identity and public sharing on a commercial basis; to local community-based facilities and our personal and intimate homes, founded on domestic understanding.

The narrative is that if we can implement those qualities with which we mostly understand in our own homes, into our larger-scale facilities, we will have a better chance of creating a Third Place in our sports infrastructure.

CASE STUDY | @akaranamarinesports Auckland by 106

CASE STUDY | @akaranamarinesports Auckland by 106 Architects + Pacific Environments.

The concept for this project was based on two pavilions - with a central and inclusive atrium focused on integrating the building with the marine environment and the people who use it.

The key outcome is a flexible and open connection between the local community and their sports functions, breaking down the exclusivity barriers formerly associated with traditional yacht clubs.

Did you know? The centre was selected as the venue for the combined world championships of the 49er (men) 49erFX (women) and Nacra 17 catamaran regatta held in December of 2019. 🙌🏻

CASE STUDY | @akaranamarinesports Auckland by 106

CASE STUDY | @akaranamarinesports Auckland by 106 Architects + Pacific Environments.

This large-scale $12 million project is located on Auckland’s treasured and sensitive ocean waterfront.

The project has seen the old yacht club gracefully evolve into the Hyundai Marine Sports Centre, catering to a far broader range of water-based sports and community activities than just sailing.

The project has enabled the interaction and regeneration of an under-utilised stretch of the waterfront and has opened access to a new range of marine-based users.

In addition, it includes over 800m2 of training and educational areas, and event spaces capable of hosting more than 300 people.

CASE STUDY | @akaranamarinesports Auckland by 106

CASE STUDY | @akaranamarinesports Auckland by 106 Architects + Pacific Environments.

The way in which clubs and communities are delivering sport today is changing.

With increasing popularity and growth, regional organisations, clubs and community groups are looking to provide stronger pathways to connect people to sports, recreation and active lifestyles.

Commencing in 2012, 106 Architects undertook early concept design, then won the commission - with @pacificenvironments_architects - collaborating to redevelop the existing @royalakaranayachtclub in Auckland’s Okahu Bay in the Eastern Suburbs.
