SPORSNIS
Isle of Lewis, Scotland
Float over images for information		This is a community inspired project which has taken over twelve years to bring to fruition. It is located to the north west corner of the Isle of Lewis in the very exposed and remote area of Ness. This area is frequently subject to extreme weather conditions and thus it’s exposure played a strong role in determining design solutions.
It is a £2m+ facility, built on two levels, and incorporates a large sports hall capable of accommodating 3 no. badminton courts. Arrayed around this central aspect of accommodation are found community spaces, training rooms, bowling alley, croileagan, fitness suite and associated toilet and changing facilities. The entire facility is linked to the existing primary and two year secondary local school.  Materials employed in the construction of this facility included portal steel frames, composite cladding panels, traditional cavity blockwork and external timber cladding. Perhaps, however, the most significant part of this construction is the means by which it is serviced through a wide variety of renewable sources. These include photo-voltaics, solar panels, aero-generators and ground sourced heat pumps.
