CHARLES BENSON BEAR ’39 ATHLETIC CENTER, GRINNELL COLLEGE – NATATORIUM AND FIELD HOUSE

Grinnell, IA

CBB provided the lighting design for a new, two-building complex for sporting events – a Field House for track and field competitions, and a Natatorium housing an Olympic-sized pool. High illumination levels for competitive sports were required in both buildings, achieved through a design scheme using metal halide sources. Both buildings were designed for accessibility, with appropriate lighting to complement this requirement.
