Thialf ice arena

Description

Everything in the totally revamped Thialf ice arena is focussed on the ice and the ice skaters. This vision has resulted in a fully redesigned ice arena. Training conditions such as temperature and humidity are easy to adapt to specific needs. In addition, sustainability and innovation play an important role.

Statement of the jury

A superb and thoroughly modern looking design that focuses attention on its main features, namely the ice skating rink and the attendant athletic events. The graphics of the ice crystal pattern on the building’s façade and in its interior are superbly done.
