Bernard Tschumi Architects
The Athletic Center at the University of Cincinnati can be described
as both a freestanding infill, and as a contextual free-form. Its
unusual boomerang-or link pin-exterior shape has been designed to
maximize its tight site constraints, which results in dynamic residual
spaces between its curvilinear shape, the existing stadium and Shoemaker
Arena, as well as sports fields and the University Recreation Center.
It also offers a spectacular view to and from the stadium.

The five-story atrium links the north and south street entrances and
acts as a common space for all the Athletic centers functions
from the athletic offices on the top floor to training rooms below
ground. While the Athletic Center will be principally used by athletes,
the new auditorium, classrooms, the UC Club, and the playing fields
will be shared by students and faculty from the greater university.
