Okanagan College Wellness Centre

Meiklejohn Architects is providing full architectural and prime consulting services for the new gymnasium, health and Wellness Centre. Our office has provided architectural services to Okanagan College for over 20 years, through numerous projects, building a strong relationship . The new 2-storey Wellness Centre will be the new home to the OC Coyotes and will run a full health and wellness program through the City of Kelowna, allowing everyone access to the new facility.

The new Wellness Centre has been designed to hold games and events for around 1,000 people and will be the new location where all Okanagan College students will graduate at their convocation. There is a two lane track around the perimeter of the second floor that is attached to the fitness centre, with state of the art equipment and two fitness studios for yoga and other fitness classes. The gymnasium is a hybrid steel structure with a mix of pre-engineered and conventional steel design and covered in 6” insulated metal panels for energy efficiency. The multi-purpose rooms, changerooms, washrooms and all public spaces have an elevated accessible design and increased clearances to welcome everyone to enjoy the new facility.
