Waukee Community School District Natatorium

Waukee, Iowa

Serving not one but two large high schools as well as the local Waukee community, this 50-meter-stretch x 25-yard competition pool can support two full 25-yard competitions simultaneously, and the additional warm-up/teaching pool, abundant natural light, and intentional flow of movement through the competition and spectator spaces come together to provide a quality competition and community space for Iowa's fastest-growing school district. Working alongside RDG Planning & Design, Aquatic Design Group is proud to have provided design, engineering, and construction observation services for this state-of-the-art natatorium.


Rogue Credit Union Community and Events Complex (Rogue X)

Medford, Oregon

The Rogue Credit Union Community Complex, affectionately known as RogueX, boasts an impressive array of aquatic amenities catering to individuals and families alike. Working alongside Perkins & Will, Aquatic Design Group provided design, engineering, and construction observation services for the sprawling aquatics complex, which hosts a 13-lane indoor competition pool, the largest in the region, and caters to high school and club swimming and water polo events. Complementing this is a 6,000-square-foot recreational pool featuring interactive play structures and two water slides - a 96-ft speed slide and a 175-ft corkscrew slide that even extends outside the building, a lazy river, and a circular vortex, as well as an outdoor spray ground.

Central to its design are features aimed at providing both recreational enjoyment and educational opportunities. RogueX heavily prioritizes swimming lessons and water safety classes, which are particularly crucial in a region abundant with open water such as rivers and lakes. The expansive competitive pool is home to high school and club swimming and water polo teams and events. Beyond aquatics, Rogue X offers over 75,000 square feet of flexible event space, accommodating various activities from sports tournaments to trade shows. The multi-purpose event center can host up to eight basketball courts or 16 volleyball courts.

This project has also been recognized with a 2024 Design & Construction Award from the Oregon Recreation & Park Society and a 2024 Gold Award of Excellence from the Pool & Hot Tub Alliance.


Mar VIsta High School

Imperial Beach, California

Working alongside Delawie, Aquatic Design Group provided comprehensive design, engineering, and construction observation services for the Mar Vista High School Aquatic Center with a primary focus on the deep gutter competition pool, including pool decks and deck drainage. The project aimed at modernizing and enhancing the existing facilities, including a 62-meter outdoor pool with 21 swim lanes, three teaching lanes, and bleachers capable of seating up to 400 spectators. The project also included a 10,000 SF aquatics support building with dual-use restrooms and concessions, pool covers and mechanical reels, exterior rinse stations and lockers, outdoor showers, and a cutting-edge digital audio-visual display with an AV scoreboard and timing display. With a focus on education, swimming, and training room programs, the design-build project involved meticulous planning and execution over four years. The project not only meets the immediate needs of the school but, as the current largest high school pool in Southern California, also positions the aquatics center as a dynamic venue for various community-wide activities.


Moana Springs Community Aquatics & Fitness Center

Reno, Nevada

The Moana Springs Aquatic Center site is steeped in local history, having once been home to a resort and natural hot springs, then later a beloved community pool. Following its closure in 2007, a 17-year grassroots movement to restore the region’s aquatic resources provided the planning, advocacy, and collaboration with the City of Reno and subsequently the Van Woert Bigotti Architects and Aquatic Design Group team necessary to open this expansive new facility in August 2024. At its core is a 50-meter competition pool, offering ten lanes for 50-meter lap swimming or 19 lanes of 25-yard swimming, along with one and three-meter diving boards, and a recreational pool with a lazy river, splash features, and a zero-depth entry. An outdoor soaking pool, maintained at temperatures in the high 90s, provides a tranquil, spa-like environment taking the site back to its original roots.

This 52,000 SF facility also features a state-of-the-art fitness center, locker rooms and restrooms, and a mother’s lounge. Thoughtfully designed with sustainability in mind, the center incorporates infrastructure for solar and geothermal energy utilization, preserves the area's historic tree canopy, and includes EV charging stations. This long-anticipated project is poised to serve as a crown jewel for aquatics in the Truckee Meadows for years to come.


Buckland Recreation Area Swimming Pool Replacement

Buckland, Massachusetts

The replaced Buckland Recreation Area Swimming Pool integrates sustainability, accessibility, and community engagement. Kuth Ranieri Architects and Aquatic Design Group worked with the community to design the pool as a central resource, fostering intergenerational engagement, wellness, and inclusivity. The pool offers multiple access points, an extended shallow plateau for early childhood water activities, and a sloped entry to enhance inclusivity. The facility includes a reception area, restrooms, indoor and outdoor changing rooms, first aid, staff areas, outdoor showers, and storage spaces. Centrally located within a park, playground, and rustic natural setting, the pool is fully and easily accessible within walking distance of a cluster of public recreational resources. The project's planning maximizes the synergy between the built and natural environment. The angled design complements the natural terrain, orienting the site toward scenic views of a nearby stream. Sustainability features include deep eaves for shading, natural daylighting and ventilation, and a roof designed for photovoltaic panels to achieve NetZero energy use. The project emphasizes durability with locally sourced materials and labor to reduce its carbon footprint. Community input deeply shaped the planning, ensuring the pool meets both individual and group needs.  It serves as a model of how small communities can create sustainable, equitable, and resilient recreational spaces within modest budgets.


Washington Community Swim Center

Sunnyvale, California

Working alongside DAHLIN Architecture, Aquatic Design Group provided design, engineering, and construction observation services for the transformation of the Washington Community Swim Center, a cherished facility in the City of Sunnyvale, into a state-of-the-art aquatic complex. The new facility features an all-purpose recreation pool with a deck-level gutter system and a 1,500 SF children's wet play area, complete with interactive water play features.

Aligning with community needs, the focus of the Washington Community Swim Center project was on the recreational aspects of swimming, water play, swim lessons, and therapeutic uses. The design team ensured universal accessibility and programming, incorporating features such as a zero-depth entry, an accessible spray ground, and additional gender-neutral and family restrooms. The facility also includes a family observation area, a multipurpose room for training and events, a lifeguard control room, and staffing and registration areas.

The award-winning project, recognized with the 2022 APWA Silicon Valley Project of the Year Award and the 2022 Gold Nugget Merit Award for Best Recreational Use Facility, showcased exceptional design and functionality. The installation of a photovoltaic system to offset energy costs for year-round pool maintenance and the integration of public art, with a theme inspired by the community's choice to retain the "Under the Sea" theme of the original facility further enhances the facility's appeal.

Echo Hollow Pool Replacement

Eugene, Oregon

The Echo Hollow pool was originally built as an indoor/outdoor aquatic center in 1969. It featured an operable bulkhead which could raise to create two separate tanks, or lower to create one larger contiguous tank. When raised, a sliding wall system would be locked in place on top of the bulkhead to enclose one of the two tanks, leaving the other uncovered outside. After decades of operation, the entire facility was due for several improvements due to its aging infrastructure, plumbing concerns, outdated design, energy inefficiency, and the need for an overall facelift. The community expressed a need for play areas for young children, increased ADA accessibility, and more lap lanes to provide increased programming and user capacity.

Working alongside local architecture firm Robertson Sherwood Architects, Aquatic Design Group provided programming and planning including context assessment and verification, program analysis / program confirmation, and program development / budget analysis, as well as full design, engineering, and construction administration services for the renovation of the aquatics complex.  Five different options were considered to accomplish the unique challenge of separating the existing indoor-outdoor, six-lane x 50-meter pool.  The selected option included converting the existing pool to a six-lane, 25-yard indoor pool with an added ADA access ramp, and two new diving springboards. A 25-yard by 25-meter outdoor pool was added for increased flexibility in programming. A sliding wall system allows one pool to be enclosed in cold or inclement weather. An outdoor activity pool was also added that includes a zero-depth entry, wet play elements, two additional shallow 25-yard swim lanes for lessons and therapy programs, water basketball, and a 19-foot-tall, 134-foot-long water slide. 

The aquatic facility support spaces were also upgraded during this renovation, including an attractive entrance and lobby, new locker and changing rooms with more private showers, and a spacious new family changing area, an additional 1,300 SF of staff office space, and an updated fitness area.  Modern and unique theming and colors throughout provide an inviting and exciting aquatic experience and add the finishing touches to this state-of-the-art facility.

Constructed to LEED Silver standards, the innovative design significantly reduced carbon emissions through the use of a highly efficient electric heat pump system designed by Systems West Engineers, indoor and underwater LED lighting, and a 167-panel solar array on the roof. This has been a huge step forward in meeting energy reduction goals for the City, as Echo Hollow Pool was previously one of the City’s highest energy-using buildings.

Merit Award Winner

James A. Leach Aquatic and Recreation Center

Hoke County, NC

The SfL+a Team, including Aquatic Design Group, provided design, engineering, and construction services for the 55,000-square-foot James A. Leach Aquatic and Recreation Center, located west of Fayetteville in Hoke County, North Carolina. Built to serve not only the residents of Hoke County but also the surrounding regions, the center offers aquatic elements designed to cater to individuals of all ages and skill levels. The natatorium features an eight-lane, 25-yard competition swimming pool that also accommodates an inflatable obstacle course. Adjacent to this is a separate recreation pool with a zero-entry ramp, spray features, and two exercise swimming lanes. A dynamic water slide extends outside and back into the pool area, and the second floor offers an accessible spectator seating area accommodating up to 200 individuals. Additionally, features such as the zero-entry ramp and spray features enhance accessibility and inclusivity, accommodating individuals with varying abilities. The design prioritizes sustainability and energy efficiency, incorporating LED lighting, high-efficiency HVAC systems, and water-saving fixtures to minimize environmental impact and reduce operational costs. Full-height glass walls flood the interior with natural light and offer unobstructed views of the picturesque surroundings.

The thoughtfully designed recreation center also includes a state-of-the-art gymnasium, six versatile multi-purpose rooms (including two adjacent to the swimming pools for event hosting), a concession stand, locker rooms, and administrative offices for the Hoke County Parks and Recreation Department.

Aquatic Design Group honored by Aquatics International Magazine

Merriam Community Center

Merriam, Kansas

Aquatic Design Group provided design and engineering services for the development of a much-needed new community aquatic center in Merriam, Kansas. Merriam’s Aquatic Center was originally all-outdoors, outdated, and too large to economically sustain.

There was originally some debate among council members regarding the layout of the site, specifically the placement of the diving well, as well as concern from a group of residents over the smaller size of the new outdoor facilities and losing the oversized outdoor-only facility they had become accustomed to. The final designs of the new facility were revised and expanded to include literally something for everyone - from competition, to play, to therapy, and everything in between – both outdoors and indoors.

The new aquatics center includes a new indoor 2,800 SF leisure and lap pool (four-lane x 25-yards) with lazy river and slide, and a small indoor therapy pool.  The 5,553 square foot indoor leisure pool features four 25-yard lanes, zero-depth entry, two water slides, ten interactive water play features and a lazy river current channel. One of the slides is a closed-flume body slide while the other slide is a simple ramp slide. The outdoor leisure pool features eight 25-meter lanes, two 1-meter springboard diving boards, a zero-depth beach entry, and five interactive water play features including a zipline. The outdoor leisure pool is surrounded by expansive decks and features shade structures, both great service amenities for special events.

Alongside partners Clark & Enersen and Perkins & Will, Aquatic Design Group included several exciting features in our design, including three air-activated "rapid simulator" depth charge bubblers on the lazy river in the indoor activity pool, activated by interactive features located on the pool deck.  The facility prioritizes water quality and sustainability by incorporating advanced filtration and purification systems. High-rate sand filters with heat exchangers ensure optimal water clarity and cleanliness, while a PPG chemical feed system maintains the appropriate chemical balance for safe swimming experiences. These state-of-the-art technologies not only enhance the comfort and safety of patrons but also underscore the facility's commitment to environmental stewardship and operational efficiency.

The aquatic center is only one part of a beautiful new 66,000 SF rec center on a seven-acre site in the heart of the Merriam community.

Echo Hollow Pool Replacement

The Echo Hollow pool was originally built as an indoor/outdoor aquatic center in 1969. It featured an operable bulkhead which could raise to create two separate tanks, or lower to create one larger contiguous tank. When raised, a sliding wall system would be locked in place on top of the bulkhead to enclose one of the two tanks, leaving the other uncovered outside.

The community expressed a need for play areas for young children, increased ADA accessibility, and more lap lanes to provide increased programming and user capacity.

The renovation of the indoor pool added a zero-entry ramp and two new diving springboards.  The outdoor portion of the original pool was demolished and replaced with a new 25-meter x 25-yard pool capable of hosting competitive swim meets and host water polo games as well as supporting one-meter and three-meter springboard diving.  An activity pool was also added that includes a zero-depth entry, wet play elements, two additional shallow 25-yard swim lanes for lessons and therapy programs, water basketball, and a 19-foot-tall, 134-foot-long water slide. 

Working alongside local architecture firm Robertson Sherwood Architects, Aquatic Design Group provided programming and planning including context assessment and verification, program analysis / program confirmation, and program development / budget analysis, as well as full design, engineering, and construction administration services for the renovation of the aquatics complex.  Five different options were considered to accomplish the unique challenge of separating the existing indoor-outdoor, six-lane x 50-meter pool described.  The selected option included converting the existing pool to a six-lane, 25-yard indoor pool with an added ADA access ramp allowing people with disabilities to enter the pool more easily, and two new diving springboards. A 25-yard by 25-meter outdoor pool was added for increased flexibility in programming. A sliding wall system allows one pool to be enclosed in cold or inclement weather.

The aquatic facility support spaces were also upgraded during this renovation, including an attractive entrance and lobby, new locker and changing rooms with more private showers and a spacious new family changing area, an additional 1,300 SF of staff office space, and an updated fitness area.  Modern and unique theming and colors throughout provide an inviting and exciting aquatic experience and add the finishing touches to this state-of-the-art facility.

'Designing Modern Aquatic Centers' published in Parks and Recreation Magazine

Pools and aquatics centers are continuing to move away from the rectangular, six- or eight-lane design and function of the past. This transition is happening even faster than anticipated by industry experts, as park and recreation agencies operating pools find themselves needing to generate more revenue to continue recovering from the financial hardships brought on by the recent pandemic, combined with rising staff costs and changed expectations with regard to subsidizing aquatics. Many also took a hard look at their aquatics facilities during the downtime the pandemic provided and came to the realization that their tired aquatics facilities needed significant renovation or even replacement. To revamp an existing aquatics facility or in planning for a new aquatics facility, park and recreation professionals are turning to the variety of popular special features that can multiply the number and variety of users, revenue and fun at pools.

Aquatic Design Group Celebrates 40 Years!

What happens when two friends strike out on their own to start a company? They work hard, have fun, and grow into one of the largest and most successful aquatic architecture and engineering firms in the country over the next 40 years.

Since its inception, Aquatic Design Group has been at the forefront of creating waves of innovation in aquatic design and engineering. From its humble beginnings with a recreation facility for the City of Bellflower, California, the firm has expanded its footprint, diving into diverse markets such as educational facilities, decorative water features, hotels and resorts, athletic training facilities, wave and surf parks, and competitive venues worldwide.

The legacy of Aquatic Design Group is deeply rooted in the vision of its founders, Scott Ferrell, AIA, a second-generation pool designer, and Randy Mendioroz, a visionary leader in waterpark amenities and construction, who established the firm in 1984 with a commitment to producing impeccable architectural and engineering documents for waterparks and aquatic facilities.

A member of the World Waterpark Association’s Hall of Fame, Randy Mendioroz's sudden passing in 2013 was mourned throughout the aquatics industry, but his pioneering leadership continues to shape the industry today. His unique approach facilitated the integration of private-sector waterpark amenities into public-sector aquatic centers, aiding in operational and financial sustainability and enhancing user experiences.

Scott Ferrell, AIA, assumed firm leadership following Randy's passing and continued to steer Aquatic Design Group to new heights. Under his guidance, the firm expanded into new markets, including surf parks and collegiate and professional athletic training and recovery facilities. Scott's unwavering commitment to "Family First" and his dedication to excellence have been driving forces behind the firm's success.

Scott passes his work ethic as well as his talent for design on to his son, Greg Ferrell, AIA, Vice President and Principal Architect. "We invite you to join us as we commemorate forty years of accomplishment and ingenuity in aquatics projects around the globe," said Ferrell. “As we share our favorite projects and collaborations over this coming year, I have nothing but heartfelt gratitude to our valued clients, partners, staff, and cherished friends and family for forty extraordinary years of partnership and delivering unforgettable aquatic experiences."

Fellow Firm Principals Justin Caron, MBA, CEO and Dennis Berkshire, AFO, CFO, President continue to lead the firm into a promising future ahead. Both regularly present educational sessions sharing their knowledge around the country at regional, national, and international conferences. Berkshire is one of the leading experts in shaping the future of the industry through his involvement on boards and standards committees. Caron continues to honor Mendioroz’s passion and position the firm to be forward focused and on creating experiences that are centered around each individual project, and not cookie cutter designs.

The success of Aquatic Design Group is not dependent on the principals, however, as the firm continues to grow around a core staff with an average tenure of over 12 years. “Our employees are the reason that Aquatic Design Group is recognized as a leader in the industry and is so well regarded. Every single member of our team is outstanding at what they do” Caron says. “Their level of expertise, passion for aquatics, and the fact that they’re all amazing people allows us to take on more work, produce at such a high level, and create unbelievable places where people relax, play, chase their dreams, recover, and recreate.”

Over the past four decades, Aquatic Design Group has completed over 3,500 projects in 47 states and 32 countries, setting the standard for quality swimming pool and water feature design and consulting services within the aquatics industry. Notable projects include iconic landmarks such as the Palace of the Lost City in Sun City, South Africa, and the Venetian Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, NV.

The journey continues as Aquatic Design Group looks forward to building upon its solid foundation and shaping the future of aquatic design and engineering for the next 40+ years.

Happy Holidays from Aquatic Design Group!

As 2023 comes to a close, we're reflecting on the beauty of the season and the incredible projects that made waves this year - all 348 projects in 30+ states and six countries in 2023!

Our office will be closed starting at noon PST today, Friday, December 22, and we will resume operations on Tuesday, January 2. We look forward to celebrating our 40th Anniversary in 2024 and approaching the next 40 years with the same unwavering passion that has fueled our commitment over the last four decades.

Wishing you a joyous holiday and a bright 2024 from your friends at Aquatic Design Group!
