AQUATICS HDR is pushing boundaries in response to the need for swimming facilities to be better equipped to be truly inclusive with respect to accessibility, multi-generational programming, and multi-culturalism. This means taking a different approach to how we think about change rooms, pool design, public safety and other important criteria that are reshaping pools of the future. Our ability to be responsive to the shift towards “lifestyle” programming has changed how we design natatoriums. While competitive and leisure aquatics will always be core to the design of swimming facilities, new ideas are emerging that are invigorating design innovations that better serve current and future needs.

COMMUNITY RECREATION CENTERS Whether for private clubs, semi-private organizations such as the Salvation Army, universities, or municipally owned public facilities, we create spaces that invigorate communities. Our centers are not just recreation facilities, but gathering places that promote inclusivity.

We often use a customized design charrette process for our community centers because we know how critical it is for key stakeholders to participate meaningfully in the design of their facilities. Our current work includes a myriad of programmatic combinations including libraries, arts, recreation, fitness, and sport spaces that reflect on how the diversity of each community can be captured in a facility that represents the unique vision and values of each group we are privileged to work with.

ATHLETE HIGH PERFORMANCE HDR's sports expertise extends to athlete high performance facilities. These unique and complex buildings are highly specialized to bolster the success of the specific athletic programs and the individual athletes they serve.

The best solutions are achieved in collaboration with coaches, trainers and staff to optimize all aspects of the athlete performance — skill, strength, conditioning, endurance, agility, balance, speed, psychology and recovery. These elite athlete facilities are incubators for new advances in sports medicine, physical therapy, injury prevention, and nutrition to elevate athlete performance and total health — both physical and mental — across youth, collegiate and professional athletics.

COMMUNITY HEALTH HDR believes that achieving community health is a holistic approach. Whether at work, commuting to an event or receiving medical treatment, health and wellness should not be an afterthought but rather easily accessible and integrated into the community as part of our everyday lives. This approach is seen in our work at Peña Station where the client sought to create a compelling community at the intersection of health, wellness and technology, with the ideology that a “healthy community” is centered around ideas of connection, accessibility, flexibility and discovery.

To be a truly health community, wellness must be woven throughout the community in many forms, areas and types.

DATA-DRIVEN DESIGN By informing our design process with rich data sets, we’re delivering the best solutions to our client using new methods of design practice.

Data-driven design translates clients’ data into useful information to expedite the decision-making process. Since data is an abstract representation of information, it’s our job to find the patterns — combining art and science for a better understanding in order to provide the right answer to client questions.

Working interactively with clients is increasingly enhancing the design process, and utilizing data-driven design to help make certain design decisions in real-time is the key. As a data-driven approach proliferates throughout the company, and a culture of data augmentation and design assistance grows, we can support decisions by referring to similar projects and using existing information to inform the delivery of a project, keeping it on time and on budget. Clients can feel confident with their decisions because they have been a decision-making partner from the beginning of the design process.

What is Data-Driven Design?

Computational Design

Predictive Analytics

Operations Design

Combining the art of iterative design and the science of complex analysis with the efficiency of automated workflows optimizes formal exploration, highperformance design, planning excellence and technical execution.

Data is seamlessly woven into the design process, creating a stirring narrative that enables the discovery of novel design solutions.

Integrating all available information, using sophisticated methods and building flexible models tailored to each client’s unique situation creates a datadriven foundation for planning and decision making through location analysis, predictive modeling and capacity modeling.

Repeatable and reliable processes are paramount to efficient operations. Developing a deep understanding of current state operations and aspirational future state operations enables the design of new operating models that minimize waste and variation using techniques such as Lean process design, virtual simulation modeling and iterative facility design creating an intentionally designed experience.
