Home to Ben Ainslie Racing and built to BREEAM excellent standards; a purpose-built facility housing all of the team's activities from design to sailing, sports science to marketing - a showcase for sport, innovation, technology and sustainability in the heart of Portsmouth. Using modern methods of construction - and with technologies incorporated into the design to seek carbon neutral credentials - the 27m tall, 2670sq.m building brings together the three key functions of boat design and team training, boat building, and a Tech Deck and Education Centre. HGP Architects' design delivers each unique function of the building in a hierarchy of cascading layers linked together through a central light well that connects everyone to the heart of the team and the boat.
