The Challenge
Cottingham Stadium is a treasure of the West Ward. Concrete bleachers place fans close to the field and create an intimidating atmosphere for visiting teams. Inside the fieldhouse, generations of Red Rovers carved names and numbers into wooden benches and hung helmets from rusted nails. Cottingham is tough, rugged and authentically Easton, just like the football players who call it home. However, at almost 100 years old, the stadium was badly in need of a facelift.




Our Approach
Design of the new Cottingham Stadium is inspired by the lyrics to Easton’s alma mater and its description of the landscape surrounding the city. New features inside the stadium provided moments to apply the design intent. Each line provides opportunity for thoughtful design surrounding necessary stadium assets with a mindfulness toward budget.



Design Solution
Looking towards the next 100 years for Cottingham, the improvements created a state-of-the-art facility that honors Easton past while allowing for a prosperous future. A red and black color scheme was carried through the stadium and fieldhouses to match the school colors to allow for a more durable facility with less maintenance costs. Stadium visitors now enter through a large brick archway beneath a prominent keystone, which houses ticket booths. Cottingham Stadium remains a treasure of the community.

Always building—spaces, culture, and a little friendly competition.
Construction is underway at our Allentown office, but we’re not letting that get in the way of a little fun.
Dust, drills, and cornhole—just another day with the #5gang.

Heart of the Valley // Our friends at @allentowncitypa asked us to create a collectible for their @saquon celebration. We cooked up these limited edition trading cards featuring an iconic image from @sfdigitals. The event benefited @masbfoundation Saquon’s nonprofit dedicated to empowering underserved youth. Congrats to the Super Bowl champ on an incredible season and thanks for celebrating with us in @lehighvalleypa. #5gang #graphicdesign #designers #tradingcards #cardcollector #gemmint10 #philadelphiaeagles #gobirds #superbowllix #weare #keytothecity #allentownpa #lehighvalleypa ...
