Wood lattice, and exposed wooden structural elements allow light to filter through, as if through the leaves of trees. The gatehouse, containing offices, as well as a lounge, and equipment and jump storage, forms the entrance to the training center. Riders in their horse trailers will drive through this building for directions to the appropriate barn. The indoor dressage arena contains two regulation-size rings and central observation area. The indoor jumping arena's lacy steel trusses supported on substantial concrete supports represent the strength of the horse and the light touch of the rider.
Natural light enters the building through clerestory windows.
On the ground floor, large oak-lined box stalls form one side of the aisle. They open onto individual outdoor spaces for the horses, where trellis provides shade. Across the aisle, tack, storage and feed rooms, and areas for trainers, veterinarian and farrier, face the stalls, giving riders easy access to their horses, equipment and staff. All rights reserved.
