Arizona Cardinals Training Facility
1988, Tempe, AZ

Sited in a converted alfalfa field, the NFL’s “best” training center proudly claims its entire 95,000 SF is naturally daylighted and ventilated. A 300-foot long wall of 16” x 16” x 24” terra cotta fireplace chimney flue tile mitigates heat gain from the harsh west sun. Jones Studio collaborated with Kenyon Architects.
