Halas Hall Renovation + Expansion NFL Chicago Bears

L O C AT I O N :

LAKE FOREST, ILLINOIS

SERVICES:

EXPERIENTIAL GRAPHICS, RECOGNITION DISPLAYS, EXHIBITS, DIGITAL EXPERIENCES, CONTENT CURATION, DIMENSIONAL INSTALLATIONS, SIGNAGE & WAYFINDING

Halas Hall, which serves as the Chicago Bears’ headquarters and training facility, is all about winning games. From the way the team trains, recovers and educates players, each step of the journey connects them to the Bears legacy and the goal of every season: the Superbowl trophy.

At the players’ entrance, retired numbers are incorporated with motion sensors, light, sound and video to invigorate players as they enter. A large-scale installation commemorates 100 years of Bears football with suspended acrylic rods that represent different seasons—regular, post or Superbowl. And we worked closely with the team’s archivists to carefully display and reinterpret historic memorabilia.

AdventHealth Training Center L O C AT I O N :

ORLANDO, FLORIDA

SIZE:

130,000 SF

SERVICES:

EXPERIENTIAL GRAPHICS , SIGNAGE & WAYFINDING, TEAM RECOGNITION

This practice facility for the NBA's Orlando Magic combines world-class athletic training and treatment with workplace spaces. In addition, the center was intended to be a special place for family to gather, making both comfort and inspiration paramount. EXD's charge was to express the Magic brand and franchise in an original and upscale manner while staying true to the character of the new building.

Typical approaches to sports facilities were set aside for more unique opportunities to speak to the brand, the history and the culture of the Orlando Magic. Whenever possible, flat graphics were exchanged for dimensional elements and small moments of interaction were combined with larger than life expressions. Team history was communicated in a way that was harmonious with the established look and feel.

The modernization of the Miami Dolphins’ Hard Rock Stadium transformed the fan experience and created a world-class destination for marquee events. To make sure the NFL team wouldn’t miss any home games, extensive renovations were completed over three offseasons.

Reinforcing Miami’s culture and heritage are murals by local artists, a wayfinding and branding package and the use of local materials. Each club, suite, gathering and dining space provides fans with a flavor of South Florida.

HOK worked directly with the Miami Dolphins advertising team to develop layouts and scheduling of all signage components, and designed and oversaw implementation of sponsorships for the 100 and 200 level concourses.

The design for Rogers Place and the ICE District creates an active new entertainment destination just north of downtown Edmonton. The City of Edmonton and the NHL’s Edmonton Oilers commissioned HOK, in association with ATB and Dialog, to design a new arena and oversee the master plan of an adjacent mixed-use district and plaza.

The arena’s design creates a premium guest experience within a sleek and iconic building that emphasizes sustainability. Amenities include a full-service restaurant open on non-game days and an expansive highdefinition, center-hung scoreboard. The arena’s facade of pliable, unpainted stainless-steel cladding, provides a polished, dynamic backdrop to the city that seems to change in appearance with each passing hour.

SIZE:

16,700 SEATS, 30,000+ SQ. FT. CLUB SPACES

SERVICES:

SIGNAGE & WAYFINDING, EXPERIENTIAL GRAPHICS, CONCESSION STANDARDS, BRAND DESIGN, SPONSORSHIP

HOK assisted with experience mapping and considered the hierarchy and placement of messages as it relates to the user journey. High impact, high texture graphics assist with wayfinding, and designs match the modern, sophistication of the interior.

HOK worked closely with Levy Restaurants to brand and unify the concessions. Each one connects to the name, cuisine or local Phoenix context. 12 of the 39 concessions are local partners who needed their wordmark translated into the new standard.

Blacks, greys and accent colors are used to provide consistency, and each sign features similar material, lighting and assembly. In addition, HOK provided retail graphics and mocked up digital display concepts that would allow the Suns to feature multiple pieces on content on one single screen.

The Atrium is one step in the United Center’s plan to develop an entertainment campus on Chicago’s Near West Side. The 4-story addition to the east end of the Arena offers a year-round refuge for fans. It includes such destinations as the Michael Jordan statue, the Madhouse Store and a cross-section of food and beverage options.

The expanded facility is also unique in that it brings Sports, Workplace, Hospitality and Retail programs together. The addition adds 3 floors of new workspace for relocated employees of the United Center, Chicago Bulls and Blackhawks, and expands food and beverage options for fans. For the hospitality spaces, the design team created signage, wall murals and experiential graphics inspired by the local Chicago neighborhood.

In addition, the facility is built around the idea of sequencing the space based on player usage, allowing the team to move easily from training to fitness, therapies and nutrition.

Working with the interior design team, our team designed branding elements to flow from the main lobby’s digital experience to integrated wall treatments and custom floor design. The Chicago Bulls’ logo and the Chicago skyline are at the center of the design theme, celebrating the team’s iconic brand and creating a backdrop for current players success.
