Earlier this year we worked on the design and animation for a proposed golf school in Edinburgh, working closely with the golf architect, PGA instructor and the head master of the school where the Academy will be built.
This project is the brainchild of the golf architect and instructor who, like so many, are keen to get more children involved in the game – and they have some rather ambitious plans to make it happen!
The proposed academy is focused around a ‘golf pod’ which features indoor teaching facilities and a practice range with a number of interactive targets for the children to aim at. Besides the golf pod there is also a 6 hole short course, with colour coded tees and greens, and a further practice range with colourful targets.
Here is a short animation showing the project:
