Stadio Volca

Durbsboi · October 31st, 2007, 10:37 AM

Stupid name, but it reminded me of a Volcano, hence the 'Volca'

Seats 75 000 in Athletic mode & 80 000 in Football mode.

Havent had a chance to do renders with the temp stands off.

Its has a main bowl, with 2 grand stands, 1 of which has press boxes, pvt suites & lounges.

The 4 levels house restaurants, bars, lounges, cafe's, offices as well as retail stores.

On the sides above the bowl there are 2 massive Screens, which in future can be removed & extra tiers added to take the stadiums capacity up to 95 000 mark.

inspired by the GMP entry to design the Nou Camp

Now that you mention it, it does kinda look like it, but honestly, I was just bored & drew what ever I thought of at the time, I did the facade first then worked on the stands.

I like how its a bit off center, but what are those spires/spikes you have coming out in a curled design on the front of the stadium? To be flagpoles?

Great!! I liked. Only change the color of the blue glass, or detail it.
It's a great design!

I wanted it to have a nice big base, not just bordering the stadium, thus giving more space for offices & shops, etc.. so the top area looked abit bland. Seeing that the stadium is multipurpose, I thought of adding flag poles, also the tought of a water feature came to mind, but I just wanted a steel awnoment so to say.

Thanx for the compliments. lol, maybe I can do a few renders with different colour facades, it can be like the Allianz with different colours on different days. Any colour you have in mind?
