Chambers Bay Golf Course Turnstand


Client
Pierce County Parks

Location
University Place, WA

Scope
Turnstand

Architecture carved from the landscape.

Located within one of the Pacific Northwest’s most celebrated golf courses, the Turnstand provides an essential gathering place for golfers while blending seamlessly into the rolling berms, native grasses, and dramatic coastline that define Chambers Bay. SHKS partnered with Pierce County to create a building that is at once functional, resilient, and deeply connected to the site’s remarkable history.

Hidden in Plain Sight

Visible from across the course yet never overpowering, the Turnstand gradually reveals itself as visitors move through the landscape. Carefully framed views toward Puget Sound, generous covered gathering spaces, and a restrained material palette reinforce the building’s quiet presence.
