The football training facility is located in the endzone of Albertsons Stadium featuring nearly 70,000 GSF of program including the team locker room, player lounge, weight room, athletic training, coaches offices, meeting rooms, and a recruiting lounge with views into the stadium.

The design team planned for future stadium expansion over the training facility building including sizing columns within the footprint to handle the anticipated phase-two project.

The university’s brand, identity and traditions are central to the design approach. Throughout the project, we assisted the client with prioritizing their program to keep in alignment with their budget, while meeting the project expectations.

The design goals for the facility included providing interaction for coaches and players, capturing views into the stadium, designing a facility that would support recruiting, while delivering the project on time and within budget.

The Arguinchona Locker Room Addition for Boise State University is helping to improve basketball operations, elevate student athlete enthusiasm, and boost recruiting. This new addition to the ExtraMile Arena includes coaches and athlete’s locker rooms, film rooms, kitchenettes, and game rooms.

A big goal for this project was to attract new brands, athletes, and coaches through a unique, appealing design. Additionally, Hummel was thoughtful about weaving the tradition of Bronco Basketball throughout the design, taking careful consideration of Boise State’s graphics and branding.

The simple palette of exterior brick, metal, and glazing was chosen to tie-in with the surrounding Boise State campus architecture while making a noticeable statement for Bronco athletics.
