Go Ducks!
The new home of the Oregon Ducks, the football team of the University of Oregon, is a
unique and forward-looking project without equal.
The Football Performance Center has a global design which encompasses both the
architecture and interior furnishings to perfectly tailor them to the players' needs.
The facade of glass, granite and metal simultaneously communicates lightness and strength.
The elements of the interior that appear impenetrable and mysterious from the outside are
bright and flooded with light inside.
The interior furnishings are also multifaceted. The love of detail reflects the care involved in
planning. Yet the primary focus of the project was never lost: The well-being of the players.
Every aspect of their day ranging from instruction, nutrition, medical care to leisure activities
was duly considered, and everything was coordinated down to the last detail.
The furnishings are luxurious while remaining highly efficient and ergonomic.
The overarching motivation behind the design is to attract the best players to accompany
the Oregon Ducks to the top of the college football national championships.

The task
The aim was to create unique and innovative lockers that satisfied the special requirements
of this project.
The modern aesthetic design pays homage to the sport characterized by speed and strength.
Behind the sleek facade with the steel body and refined Corian front is an interior designed
down to the smallest detail which offers the players every conceivable comfort.
The well-arranged storage of equipment was one of the most important considerations in
development.
C+P developed a creative special, accommodating pull-out mechanism for the helmet and
chest pads.
A sufficient amount of space is provided for storing personal items. There is also sufficient
space for extra-large shoes. In addition, the locker offers technical extras like power plugs
and cable-free cell phone charging.
The locker is fully ventilated to prevent unpleasant odors. The visual appearance is not
impaired by visible ventilation elements.
In a continuous exchange with the client, a result was achieved that reflects the character of
the building while offering its own accents.

Superior organization
Tailored logistics are required to handle a large football team.
In addition to the 125 player lockers, C+P also offers 20 lockers for the trainers as well as
equipment lockers for the individual players.
These lockers for providing equipment to the players are open on one side. The equipment
manager who fills the compartment is the only one who has access. Each player then picks
up his equipment from his personal box on the way to training. The players access the
compartment with an electronic combination lock.
The coaches' lockers are sleek and elegant. The sparse design is also reflected here. The
body is made of steel, and the doors consist of Corian.
Like the players' lockers, they are powered and have wireless charging module, however the
pull- out mechanism for the shoulder pads and helmet was replaced with a shelf.
