Entry Description

Since Shenzhen is the most rapid “urbanization” developed city in China, a traditional sports and culture center with functional separation will not meet the new urban context.

The design is to create a new type of “Vertical Sports-Culture Mix” within a limited site. Meanwhile, a series of public spaces are inserted vertically within the building boundary to encourage social activities.

The building is supported by 6 mega trusses. Various amenities are hanged from the structure, and the 45*75m main stadium in lower level will be column free for various sport and culture events of Shenzhen.
