Project Brief

<p>Scope: Integrated sports complex: 50,000-capacity Olympic stadium with athletic facilities, 12,000-spectator multipurpose indoor arena, large training camp facility available for private team rental.<br>Challenge: Create dual-venue sports city that balances international competition standards with commercial viability. Design flexible facilities capable of hosting diverse event types beyond athletics - maximizing asset utilization and revenue generation.
