Butts-Mehre Heritage Hall Renovation
Designed and delivered in collaboration with Menefee Architecture, this new sports performance facility was the first project that began a successful 12-year partnership. The state-of-the-art football facility includes a multipurpose indoor practice area that houses a 35-foot-tall volume with a 20-yard by 60-yard turf field, meeting rooms, coaches’ offices, 12,000-SF strength and conditioning room, football lockers and lounge, a sports medicine/athletic training area and a cutting-edge video editing suite.
The design team worked closely with the university to evaluate multiple alternatives for materials that would complement the existing building and provide the high-quality of finishes expected for top NCAA Division I performance centers.
An extensive programming effort was conducted with multiple user groups and coaches to validate an existing program that had been completed by another architecture firm. This program was refined and compared with other comparable facilities across the country to confirm that the project scope enabled UGA to remain competitive and recruit the best student-athletes.
