The Potomac School, Spangler Center for Community and Athletics
CANNON DESIGN
This 76,000SF new construction athletic and community center consolidated the indoor athletic fitness and training facilities for a prominent private K-12 school outside of Washington DC and created new amenities for the nearby community.
Envisioned to showcase environmental design techniques, daylight simulations informed large expanses of the translucent and transparent envelope, providing access to glare-free, energy-offsetting natural light throughout the day. At night, lighting within is evenly diffused, creating the building’s soft glow. The design team paid close attention to the nighttime presence of the design, taking steps to minimize light trespass to the adjacent residential neighborhood.
