New Modern Stadium Designs
October 9th 2009 03:11
Some sporting arenas were built long ago and carry with them the traditions of the city in which they reside. However, recently new modern stadiums have been constructed which showcase the progressiveness of the area and its people. Thanks to Time.com, here are some very aesthetically pleasing stadiums built in recent times.
A.k.a the Bird's Nest, Herzog & de Meuron's intricately woven bowl became a symbol of the Beijing Olympics.
A playing field that slides in and out of the place on a tray is the wow factor of Peter Eisenman's design.
London's new soccer field by Norman Foster's firm launches a dramatic steel arch as structural support.
The Munich soccer stadium by Herzog & de Meuron has a plastic exterior skin that lights up in team colors.
The Dallas-based firm HKS Architects arrived at a balance of steel and glass that's muscular in some places, transparent in others. Giant glass doors at both ends admit views and natural light, while sloping bands of fritted glass along the sides catch the sky.
