Gaziantep Stadium

The growing city of Gaziantep was fortunate to be the home of a professional soccer team. The team’s popular matches in an urban stadium caused difficult traffic congestion and were no longer easily accessed by an expanding suburban fan base. As a result, the city conducted a competition for design of a multi-use, high-capacity, indoor, suburban stadium.

Our office entry created a new structural concept with space design that included stadium seating, indoor parking, retail stores, restaurants, bars, offices, a conference room, locker rooms, a theater, and a multi-purpose room. The stadium design accommodated the topography with public social spaces all oriented with a view of a picturesque nearby valley.
