Serving as the gateway to the college, Cañada College Kinesiology and Wellness Center is located prominently at the main entrance to the campus. As the home of Cañada College's physical education department, the two-story structure will serve as a student athletics training and recreation center, with memberships also available to the public. The new facility replaces an obsolete athletics building with a new 85,000 sf facility with a 25-meter by 25-yard competition pool and adjacent instructional pool, classrooms, an extensive fitness area, an NCAA basketball arena, lockers and showers, and offices.
The facility's design emphasizes openness, with long views through the center and out over the surrounding hills. The building's mass features a cantilevered upper level that appears to float over its hillside location. The primary circulation is contained within a translucent linear volume. The structure is clad primarily with glass and metal panel, with a perforated metal rooftop shade canopy in a folding shape inspired by the mountain range beyond. An activated roof is situated underneath the canopy, incorporating a running track, pickleball courts, Queenax equipment, and an outdoor yoga space, and allows users to take advantage of the area's mild climate and spectacular views of the San Francisco Bay and surrounding mountains. The new facility will be integrated with the rest of campus by the addition of a new, landscaped pedestrian plaza. The facility is sustainably designed and is targeting LEED Gold certification.
