My diploma project at The Royal Academy of Fine Arts, School of Architecture in Copenhagen was the design of a brand new football stadium. Contrary to the traditional football stadium my vision was to design an unique building with a diverse life in and around the stadium at all times, and the interaction with the surroundings was therefore very important. I found the perfect location for the stadium next to the ocean and close to Amager Beach Park, where it in interaction with Denmark’s new aquarium, The Blue Planet would be a culmination of the entire recreational strip along Amager Beach Park. To obtain my vision I also decided to add additional features (shops, bars, restaurants, a swimming bath etc.) to generate lots of activities in the area, but also to make a healthy economy for the club. Architecturally I designed the stadium as a part of the landscape that where continuing into the water, where the stands and the football pitch where indented in the massive, and the surface of the roof became the new public green surface. Furthermore I worked a lot with the staging of the whole experience - the stadium as the cave with the spectators noise internally and externally the roar of the ocean. I made a unique and lively experience where the club would get a stadium with its very own identity that were adjusted to the specific location.
