Houston / Tyner saw an opportunity to take advantage of the expansive views of the surrounding desert landscape by designing the 9,000 SF Tennis and Athletic center with large floor to ceiling glazing arranged in a wide arc. Designed to express movement and energy, the center’s cantelivered sun shades provide guests with shaded views of the USTA tennis courts and the valley below. Stacked stone and ipe wood provide a palate that relates to the surrounding native landscape.
