HONOR AWARD — SMALL PROJECT Scratch Clubhouse Stereotomic Arch & Design NESTLED AT THE FOOT OF THE WASATCH MOUNTAINS, THE SCRATCH MINI GOLF PAVILION IS A COMPACT, CONTEXTUALLY SENSITIVE STRUCTURE designed to support and revive a family‑oriented entertainment venue. The pavilion serves as both a social anchor and an operational hub for the surrounding miniature golf course, blending industrial utility with regional material warmth in a landscape that celebrates recreation, openness and community. The design responds to three primary conditions: the landscape, programmatic flexibility and economic modesty. The dramatic mountain backdrop informed the structure’s horizontality, low profile and clear roof form — a respectful contrast that keeps views open and expansive. The pavilion needed to be compact, yet adaptable enough to serve as a check-in station, snack bar, shade structure and gathering place. The design prioritized cost efficiency through a modular strategy that used repurposed shipping containers and prefabricated components. The two steel shipping containers flank a central breezeway, unified by a cantilevered steel-and-perforated-metal roof. The canopy hovers lightly over the solid massing below, providing dappled light and shade that mitigates heat while reinforcing the project’s public presence. The matte-black shipping containers are punctuated by large service windows, clerestory glazing and horizontal wood insets that soften the industrial palette. A butterfly-shaped roof with a translucent, corrugated-metal underside creates a gathering gesture, drawing visitors inward and establishing a natural central axis. The slope also provides passive drainage and visual lift. The surrounding space features six custom-built tables with steel frames and wood planks, mirroring the architectural material language and extending the social program into the landscape.
