Sports Arena


The sports stadium is integrated into a public park. The arena itself is dug into the landscape in order to avoid the South-East bound winds. Stands enclose running tracks and a large field. The surrounding landscape is shaped to follow the height differences that are due to both the building and the situation. The north-bound side of the building is raised above the south-bound side in order to provide extraordinary views of the fiord in front.
Underneath the stands lies a second layer of running tracks, including other sports facilities and inner rooms. These functions can be used all-year-around as they are protected from the weather as well as being climatised.
