King Faisal University Stadium Balance Between
Form & Function DSC in Cooperation with Emad Mohamed Al Jabr consulting
engineer as a local consultant designed King Faisal University Stadium in
Al-Ahsa, KSA. The university’s identity is visually expressed by its stadium
due to its location which is an important factor during the university’s
design. The Stadium has two positive points; the first one is the academic
atmosphere, the second is being located on the freeway which makes a connection
to the city atmosphere. As a result, the design reflects both the academic side
and the society that the university belongs to. The design idea has been
invented to express the uses of Palm derivatives. For instance, the pillars
shaped as Palm trunks determines the inner space & creates a distinctive
wall.
This reflection - through the usage of
horizontal units and the repeatition using a regular module that bends
vertically to form the same Palm trunks’s shape - Creates the joint wave sense
that surrounds this ceremonial space.
The
two crescent, of which one is larger than the other, aim to provide collateral
entrances the same as the ascending stands to reduce the pressure on the main
entrance and exits. In addition it will receive a large number of crowds during
different occasions which require more space. As for the facilities of players
and referees locker rooms, halls and waiting areas have been placed in the
lower part of the stands, as well as a VIP platform that has been designed with
special entrances. On the other hand, the Physical Education Faculty building
is linked to the stadium from the east in order to facilitate the connection
between both buildings. Generally, the stadium provides a clear vision of what
the local architecture can be, and how we can develop ideas not only from the
historical and the heritage architectural point of view , but also from the
surrounding environment as the local experience is wide open for all the
possible visual interpretations.
