Details
This is the first E-sports stadium in China that meets the official competition standards of the Asian Games. The main body of the building adopts the sinking method to introduce the flow of people and vehicles from the underground into the stadium, effectively breaking the shackles of complex traffic conditions on the stadium. The volume of the main stadium is driven by the special external force of the site, which promotes the logical formation of the building "from the outside to the inside".
The Jury‘s Statement
With its dynamically round design language, the building is reminiscent of a futuristic spaceship that takes off at any moment. A complex that is not only formally but also functionally convincing and iconically embodies the fantastic world of e-sports.
