Men’s Locker Room Renovation
University of California, Santa Barbara

Located in the belly of UCSB’s hallowed Thunderdome, the renovated men’s basketball locker room brings new energy and excitement to the team’s home base.  Reorganizing the space to create as much volume as possible was a top priority, with new lockers that are high-performance in function and feel.  Serving utilities were strategically rerouted to raise the ceiling height and pull exhaust air out through the back of each locker storage – no shoe smells!  Ultra-bright LED ceiling lights are micro-sized, saving space and creating a fashion-forward vibe.  Accent lighting adds drama to the lockers and creates a dynamic display for each player’s jersey. A large curved HD wall monitor, a built-in audio system, and a floating glass whiteboard complete the look.  GO, GAUCHOS!
