The city of Kunshan, Jiangsu Province, welcomes the completion of its new Olympic Sports Center, designed by gmp Architects and Tongji Architectural Design (group) Co.,Ltd in accordance with FIFA regulations. Construction had started in October 2020, with the original goal of hosting the Asia Cup in 2023 and providing a top-tier venue for both local and international football events. Since the Asia Cup 2023 had been re-located to be held abroad, the stadium was then upgraded to an Olympic sports facility, with other accompanying venues to be planned in the future.

The oval shaped, stand-alone structure is situated in a landscape park adjacent to other sports facilities and residential quarters in the neighborhood. The stadium with a capacity of 45,000 will thus serve the city not only for hosting mega events but also for accommodating community events and activities in the surrounding sports park. With its highly sculptural and impressive form of a spread fan, the landmark building stands out from its neighbors and connects to a local identity at the same time.

36 pairs of slender, folded concrete walls support the stands, the façade and the roof structure while creating exciting spaces underneath the stands as well as in the ground level areas. Between each pair of 49 m high in-situ concrete elements, façade membranes are spanned, each with dimension of 26m by 34 m. Their area of roughly 600 m² per façade unit currently represents the largest single-sheet membrane structure in China.

The roof structure is formed by thirty-six filigree, cantilevered steel girders. Their upper chords form an extension of the concrete double walls at roof level, clad with membrane that continues in sharp folds from the facades onto the roof structure. While during daytime, the membranes protect the spectators from sun and rain, in the evening and at night the semi-translucent material glows in a warm light, illuminated from within the stadium spaces. While producing a lighting effect on the outside, the illuminated membranes also reflect the light into the stadium and provide even and comfortable lighting levels on the stands.

The open design prioritizes comfort and ventilation, ensuring a pleasant experience for fans, even during hot weather. Inside the stadium, meticulous attention to FIFA regulations is evident. The well-maintained pitch serves as a high-quality playing surface for matches. Advanced lighting and sound systems guarantee clear visibility and acoustics, enhancing the overall experience for spectators.

Supporting facilities are situated in a building ring that is detached from the stadium building proper. Wide staircases lead the spectators from the landscape park onto the podium ring and then across 48 bridges to different levels of the stadium stands. These bridges also serve evacuation purposes, helping to reduce the dimensions of the inner circulation around the stands.

In the expansive landscape park surrounding the stadium, a natural riverbed has been retained and given a role of linking the park and the Olympic Sports Center. Radial water surfaces are arranged in a half circle along the south side of the venue. They follow the strictly radial pattern of the paved plaza areas and staircases. The water surfaces produce spectacular reflections of the stadium sculpture, enhancing the views of the venue for visitors of the park.

We look forward that Kunshan Olympic Sports Center will present many sporting events and memorable moments and host in the future.
