With a combination of informed planning, design, cost estimating, revenue modeling and pre-construction advisory from day one, Baylor and ArchTam together created an exciting new vision for what a contemporary collegiate basketball arena should be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The fieldhouse-inspired concept rejects the bigger is better mindset and embraces the mantra of fewer, but better seats. By pulling seats forward toward the floor, steepening the rake of student seating at each baseline and integrating premium experiences seamlessly, a singular focus on the competition on the floor was created. By investing in student-athlete and fan-facing technology and experiences, and deliberately focusing on the in-game environment and home-court advantage created, a uniquely Baylor design solution was achieved. In addition to the competition venue itself, a state-of-the-art practice facility with dedicated space for both the women\u2019s and men\u2019s programs is included in the project so that the Bears not only have the best competition venue in the Big 12, but the best home 365 days a year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"aecom-custom-block aecom-block-lightbox\" style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px\">\n    <div class=\"hover-overlay\" data-img=\"https:\/\/www.archtam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/baylor-photo-1.jpg\" data-title=\"Paul and Alejandra Foster Pavilion\"><i class=\"fa-solid fa-eye\"><\/i><\/div>\n    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.archtam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/baylor-photo-1.jpg\" alt=\"Paul and Alejandra Foster Pavilion\" class=\"aecom-lightbox\">\n            <div class=\"image-caption\"><h3>Paul and Alejandra Foster Pavilion<\/h3><\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"aecom-custom-block aecom-block-lightbox\" style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px\">\n    <div class=\"hover-overlay\" data-img=\"https:\/\/www.archtam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/baylor-photo-2.jpg\" data-title=\"Paul and Alejandra Foster Pavilion\"><i class=\"fa-solid fa-eye\"><\/i><\/div>\n    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.archtam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/baylor-photo-2.jpg\" alt=\"Paul and Alejandra Foster Pavilion\" class=\"aecom-lightbox\">\n            <div class=\"image-caption\"><h3>Paul and Alejandra Foster Pavilion<\/h3><\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":558,"featured_media":41296,"template":"","tags":[],"city":[1176],"class_list":["post-41292","project","type-project","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","city-waco"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.archtam.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project\/41292","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.archtam.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.archtam.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/project"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.archtam.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/558"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.archtam.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project\/41292\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":41293,"href":"https:\/\/www.archtam.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project\/41292\/revisions\/41293"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.archtam.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/41296"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.archtam.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=41292"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.archtam.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=41292"},{"taxonomy":"city","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.archtam.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/city?post=41292"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
