    🎾 Game, set, match Take a look inside our design for Princeton University's new home for varsity athletics and recreation, the Racquet and Recreation Fieldhouse. This 180,000-square-foot facility is a cornerstone of community life in Princeton's growing Meadows neighborhood. The building blends premier varsity athletics with inclusive recreation, featuring indoor and outdoor courts, training facilities, and thoughtfully designed gathering areas that welcome students from across campus. The Fieldhouse is more than a place to train – it’s a dynamic hub where athletic excellence, wellness, and sustainable design meet under one roof 🐅 Read more about the Fieldhouse here: https://lnkd.in/egpncnvR Video courtesy of Princeton Athletics #VentureForward

    “All the different parts of the project—whether it's the more natural areas like the mangrove bayou or the urban areas around the cultural district—each one of these takes different solutions. They’re opportunities to educate the general public around stormwater design.” 🌴🌧️ The Bay Sarasota checks in with Sasaki civil engineer Zachary Chrisco to discuss the strategies used throughout the 53-acre park to ensure that every drop of stormwater that passes through is treated before it enters Sarasota Bay. 🎥: The Bay Sarasota

    🌍🌱 As we deepen our understanding of climate change, it's clear that agriculture and the food system play a pivotal role, contributing approximately 25-30% of global greenhouse gas emissions. This reality underscores the urgent need for innovative solutions in land use and sustainable practices. Landscape architects are uniquely positioned to lead this conversation. Our expertise in responsibly planning land use is crucial for developing strategies that not only mitigate climate impact but also foster resilience within our delicate food systems. At Sasaki, we’ve embraced this challenge through transformative projects. The Songzhuang Arts and Agriculture Community in Beijing is a prime example, where we’ve shifted the paradigm of agriculture's role in economies, illustrating how they are interwoven. Similarly, our work at Lim Chu Kang in Singapore showcases a visionary approach to food security, creating pathways to sustain a thriving metropolis of 7 million people with innovative agricultural solutions. This week, I’m excited to be in Puerto Rico to kick off a project focused on food resilience for the island with a catalyst project in San Lorenzo. Together, we can enhance food security and bolster the local economy with regenerative agriculture and complementary programming. Collectively as a profession, let’s lead the conversation on how land planning and design can create a more sustainable future for agriculture and food systems. 🌿 #SustainableDesign #FoodResilience #ClimateChange #LandscapeArchitecture #Agriculture

    This month in Athletic Business, architect Emily Parris, AIA reflects on her professional journey and how playing sports shaped how she approaches designing athletics facilities. "My goal is to create thoughtful and inviting performance environments that support individuals in their pursuit of personal excellence. Growing up involved in sports, I was a quiet kid, but athletics helped me make friends and taught me how to collaborate, celebrate and recover as a team," Emily says. 🔗Read more of Emily's conversation with other leading women architects in sports and recreation in honor of Women's History Month: https://ow.ly/4CvI50VjVh9 📷 Colby College Harold Alfond Athletics and Recreation Center

    🏀 How do you elevate the student-athlete experience within an existing building? With March Madness right around the corner, we’re looking back at how an innovative renovation at Boston College transformed the Conte Forum into a vibrant facility that strengthens connections between Division I athletes and the campus community. By expanding the facility and opening up spaces that previously felt hidden, we've created a more dynamic environment that amplifies team identity, creates more places for team-building, and provides cutting-edge spaces for recruitment and training. One of the most dramatic transformations was the Power Gym, which greets students at the facility’s north entrance. A precisely inserted curtain wall replaced the gym's brick exterior, opening the space to the campus landscape and flooding it with natural light. On the interior, this transparency visually connects the Power Gym to adjacent spaces like the weight room. The renovation and addition is a full-circle moment for Sasaki. Having designed the original Conte Forum in the 1980s, this was a unique opportunity to explore how college athletics have evolved and how thoughtful design can elevate the student-athlete experience and BC's athletics program.

    In Salalah, Oman, a bold new vision will transform the port city's coastline. Working closely with Oman’s Ministry of Housing & Urban Planning, Sasaki’s master plan combines housing, parks and open spaces, retail, cultural spaces and amenities, and two new hospitals to create a walkable, resilient new development. These improved amenities and a new six-kilometer-long public beach will help cement Salalah as a year-round destination for visitors. New City Salalah celebrates the region’s coastal context and protects its natural features. With the inclusion of a wetland park, a series of revetments, and other natural infrastructure, New City Salalah is designed to adapt to rising sea levels, flooding from the Khareef monsoon season, and other extreme weather events. As part of the Oman Vision 2040 plan, this project will help Oman achieve its goal of building a developed, diversified, and sustainable national economy. Construction is set to begin later this year. Read more on designboom: https://ow.ly/QlmY50VbR2X

    As designers of the built environment, we hold the power to shape the world around us. But what world should that be? One that mirrors the fractured narratives of our 24-hour news cycle, or one rooted in fairness, justice, and truth? A recent decision to erase queer and transgender references from the National Parks Service's Stonewall National Monument website is deeply concerning. Just as the built environment shapes collective memory, the language we use, or erase, determines whose stories are remembered. Every decision, whether in language, policy, or physical space, shapes collective memory. These website changes reflect a broader struggle: whose stories are preserved, and whose are erased. As someone actively shaping the vision for the area near the National Monument, we must create spaces that reflect the fullness of human experience. The world we design today will shape the stories future generations inherit. Sasaki Zach Owens / West Village Business Improvement District
