The San Jose Sharks Arena was built to enhance the city’s image and boost revenue while serving as a forum for sporting events, entertainment and social/professional gatherings. This award winning design linked all usages of the stadium from sporting and club areas to retail spaces, offices, and conference rooms. The challenges in this project included the development of custom details and fixtures which would be both vandal resistant and adherent to the overall design theme. Throughout the project there is an overriding consideration for energy efficiency, maintainability and control system.
