Relationship of Building to Site:
Keith Hay Park is surrounded by residential development in the Mt Roskill district of Auckland. The new building is sited at a focal point in clear view of all the soccer pitches on the north side of the Park, and adjacent to the club's new Number One field. The building is strategically positioned to connect into the proposed Park system of pathways and allow all-round views from the clubroom and observation decks, and yet not to block important views across the park.
Design Rationale:
The building is conceived as a single storey pavilion sitting lightly on a finely finished concrete plinth set into the landscape.
The pavilion is expressed as a floating sculptural roof resting on a series of eleven steel triangulated supports rising from the stepped plinth. The enclosed built spaces are set back under the roof and behind these supports, thus creating several generous verandas around all sides of the building, from under which the stepped viewing terraces emerge.
The building’s plinth serves several functions:
As an efficient way to support the building in prevalent ground conditions, it is constructed as a cellular reinforced concrete raft foundation.
It extends beyond the internal areas of the building to provide extensive raised terraces from which spectators can view a number of football pitches It raises the major spaces of the building to be above the flood plain.
The building is made from predominantly lightweight, prefabricated components. The airy, tent-like structure is anchored at the southern end by the precast concrete enclosure to the changing rooms, and at the more open northern end by the precast concrete hearth panel, which externally is to bear the emblem of Three Kings United Football Club.
The shape of the roof was initially inspired by the notion of a leaf floating over the Park and coming to rest. From that idea the form evolved not only in response to economic and functional requirements, but also from the wish to capture the ethos of the Club and its aspirations.
