case study summary

This Catholic High School has the mission of providing a safe, nurturing, creative, and challenging campus where individuals grow in knowledge and faith. The High School needed to upgrade their aging athletic venue and facilities. This included new seating, steps, ramps, and a large custom press box to accommodate the local media, home and opposing coaching staffs, and provide filming platforms shielded from the elements.

To meet these needs, a custom 12-foot-wide modular press box was designed and installed overlooking the stadium seating. The structure provides a modern, enclosed space for media coverage, coaching coordination, and game-day operations while integrating covered filming platforms for year-round use. The expanded interior layout allows multiple media personnel and staff to work efficiently during events, while the elevated placement offers clear sightlines across the field. By using modular construction, the school was able to upgrade its athletic facilities quickly and with minimal disruption to ongoing campus activities.
