Lakelands Country Club
SPORT / LEISURE
The project involved the construction of a new clubhouse including two bar/lounge areas, a full commercial kitchen and bar, meeting rooms, locker rooms, and a buggy room. An existing building containing the pro-shop was retained and upgraded to house club administration. Further upgrade works were designed and documented for future implementation to better integrate the new and existing buildings.
Located on a relatively flat site, the design team worked hard to develop a design that remodeled ground levels so that the new building could be two storeys but still fully accessible at-grade on both levels. The outcome affords easy access to and from the golf course and provides expansive views from the lounges and broad terrace over the picturesque grounds.
The design of the new building incorporates some of the materials and architectural features of the existing retained building so the two buildings present a consistent character.
Internal and external materials and colours are restrained, contemporary and timeless.
