This facility was designed around a minimal supervision philosophy... in other words limited staffing. One director was required to have visual and voice communication from her office to the gym, game room, equipment issue desk, front door and doors to the restrooms. A second employee supervises multi-purpose activities and allexterior activities; therefore, the facility was designed for visual internal supervision around the small office. The second requirement was for as much glass for natural lighting as possible, but all glazing had to be at least 6'-0" above finish floor to discourage break in and vandalism. All of these elements were designed into this facility. The building consists of the following spaces: full high school size gym basketball court with seating for 200; game room with two pool tables two table tennis boards and two footsball tables; office with separate equipment issue andstorage; lobby with vending area; men’s and women’s toilets, locker and shower rooms; club room/meeting room with separate complete kitchen; kiln room and general storage that connects club room and gymnasium. The building was designed for totally physically handicapped accessibility.
