Hampshire Rose Bowl

When Hampshire County Cricket Club decided to redevelop their home ground, they opted for an awe inspiring and iconic structure to cover their pavilion buildings.

By starting with a virgin site, architects Hopkins & Partners were able to design the ideal environment for training and playing cricket at the highest level.

With a strong background in the design and manufacture of tensile canopies, and experience in building for the sports industry, Architen Landrell was appointed to develop and construct the tensile structures forming the key buildings at the new venue and a stand for 12,000 spectators and a naturally lit cricket academy.

The white fabric buildings, created from PVC coated polyester, provide an elegant home for this traditional Summer sport and act as simple sculptural elements within the landscaped parkland setting.
