Team Liquid are one of the biggest organisations in esports, with teams in LoL, CS:GO, and even PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, and now they have revealed their plans for a custom-built training facility in Los Angeles.
Details on the facility can be found via Team Liquid's site, but basically the 9,000 square foot space in West LA will not only serve as a practice space with scrim rooms and bootcamp areas, but also houses areas for support staff, screening rooms, and 1UP Studios' own space (this is Liquid's in-house production company). Separating work and play is also important for the facility, so as to promote a work-life balance.
"We're leveling up the traditional model of the gaming house," says Steve Arhancet, Co-CEO of Team Liquid. "The new Team Liquid Headquarters in Los Angeles will be a customised player training facility and office work space representing the next evolution of infrastructure for esports - a benefit for all of our ten teams. Our new HQ makes a statement about the culture of our organisation and the influence of our ownership group, aXiomatic. Player well-being is essential and the new space will not only be an effective work environment, but promote a healthier lifestyle and cross-pollination among teams."
