Abstract:
A stadium is one of the most exciting of building types of the 1990s; designed well, they can enhance and provide a comfortable venue for great occasions. The recent Taylor Report identified necessary change and recommended improvements to spectator facilities by refurbishment or rebuilding. The facilities required have become increasingly important and complex. This authoritative and comprehensive guide to stadia design will be invaluable to those responsible for the provision of new stadia or refurbishment. Both authors have been involved in the design of stadia, arenas and grandstands for many years and this book reflects their wealth of experience and expertise. The stadia featured include the proposed new development at Wimbledon, new North stand at Arsenal, Giants stadium at New Jersey, Barcelona stadium and San Siro stadium in Milan.
