A stroll into the future at Boca Pointe Country Club…

The members and directors of the beautifully situated Boca Pointe Country Club in Boca Raton, Florida were able to walk into the future when Chambers provided a vividly accurate animated tour of the new Center Court activities center.

After years of having various activities scattered around the club campus, Boca Pointe hired Chambers to create a warm, comfortable center for sports, relaxation, theatre presentations, and casual dining, adjacent to the main clubhouse yet worlds away in terms of formality.

Chambers knew, however, that such a complex undertaking is often hard to fully appreciate, so the question became: How can we really show everyone a building—and a concept—that doesn’t exist? The design for the new center was to be very much of-the-moment, fresh, crisp, with a stylishly trend-setting warmth that would serve the membership for years to come. So, rather than using the traditional sketches and floor plans to present, Chambers turned to a solution as of-the-moment as the club: a fully animated walk-through so that every viewer would feel as though he or she was strolling through the new building, viewing the wall of cascading water in reception, absorbing the handsome amenities, enjoying the viewing decks for the tennis courts and spa-like pool, and entering the beautifully appointed casual bar and dining areas.

Before the first foundation stone was laid, Center Court at Boca Pointe was real. Thanks to Chambers’ understanding of the importance of creating consensus on such a large and multifaceted project, everyone connected to the club was quite literally able to take a stroll into the future seeing and appreciating Center Court just as it would be.
