DB3 Architecture for the Sport and Leisure Sector

DB3’s specialist Sport and Leisure Architecture team has worked continuously and exclusively on sports and leisure projects for more than 35 years.

Our team of architects and technologists has extensive experience in the planning, design and procurement of both public and private sector sports and leisure facilities throughout the UK and overseas:

  • Successfully completed more than 200 wet and dry leisure centres
  • Design advisor and design assessors for Sport England since 1998
  • Work with Olympic Development Agency, British Cycling, Swim England and many other national governing bodies.

Our Influence in the Sporting World

Our Influence in the Sporting World

Our expertise in this very specialist and technical field has not gone unnoticed and we have sat on British and European standards committees and worked with most of the industries national governing bodies.

We have been appointed as Design Advisor and Design Assessors for Sport England since 1998 and were the External Technical Assessors and Supervisors for one of the London 2012 Olympic facilities on the Olympic Park. In this role we have helped to author several Sport England design guidance documents, and have been involved in design reviews of hundreds of leisure centre projects either during their design or following completion of the schemes. This work has provided us with a unique opportunity to learn from the successes, and perhaps more importantly, the failures of these schemes. We bring the knowledge we have gained from this to each of our projects.

Our Design for Sport

  • Public wet and dry leisure centres

  • Ice rinks
  • Public and private sector fitness centres
  • Training centres
  • Sports academies

Achieving Best Value through Teamwork

Achieving Best Value through Teamwork

We take consideration of all options, alternatives and innovative ideas. This allows us to achieve optimum value for money while satisfying end-user requirements and the prevention of unnecessary expenditure through reducing waste and inefficiency.

To help facilitate this we encourage improved team working with joint ownership of solutions. We take the multidisciplinary approach, seeking to maximise the creative potential of all project participants, including the client, and working together as an integrated project team.
