"The practice is becoming known as the one to watch. Anything is now possible at HOK Sport."
- Peter Cook, Chair of the Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London.
At HOK Sport, we have the greatest bunch of individuals - innovative, fun and highly creative architects and designers, who enjoy working collaboratively to provide unique design services for our clients. Our buildings are realised by a team driven by a passion for bespoke design and exciting sport. We understand the aspiration to achieve the best; stadium sightlines which capture that moment of sporting glory, arenas which move us to euphoria, racecourses exuding elegance and motor circuits as adrenaline-fuelled as the sport itself.
In an ever changing world, we are on a quest for quality - to ensure that our surroundings affect our lives in a positive way. We want our designs to harmonize with their environment; responding to the culture, the climate, the community.
We are constantly encouraging our team to take on new and exciting challenges. This has culminated in the design of the world's most iconic sports, civic and entertainment buildings. Famous world over for their architecture, and the folklore and memories that remain ingrained within our collective culture. In addition to the knowledge possessed internally, we draw on the expertise of local partners and the world's leading specialist consultants. This helps us to respect different cultures and enables us to produce innovative designs and tailor our service to the client, wherever they may be.
In today's world, where environmental issues and energy efficiency are at the forefront of political discussions, we are setting trends in the current market. Inspired by a healthy view to the future, we are designing award-winning buildings whose physical performance responds to these issues.
HOK Sport operates within an open plan office enabling the free flow of ideas, because we believe that collaboration is central to the creative act. While ideas are born from individual reflection, design itself is a social behaviour. Leadership inspires. Individuals guide. Teams collaborate.
