View along main approach with planar exterior facade. This primary facade presents one of the main design ideals of the building, that of 'directional planarity'.


The re-integrated form of the entry 'plaza'


The intermediate multi-purpose spaces are integrated more into the overall design, and given an increased sense of 'solidity' with the replacement of a glass facade with a sandstone masonry one



The corner edge of the Grandstand, with an increased sense of 'insertion'


Interior of the cafe/admin areas, showing the insertion of the floor plates into the grandstand's shell, and the created vertical emphasis between the two zones


Relationship between the cafe and administration areas, as seen from the street



Overall plan layout of the main building


The main through-axis of the entrance/foyer/oval


The secondary, more specialised through-axis, with entry to the different use areas


The cross-axis joining the two through-axes with the main gym hall, with a strong sense of directionality along the northern axis


The communal kitchen, opening onto the foyer, with easy access to the newly created seating/viewing areas. The kitchen references the idea of the 'kiosk' to the sports event.



THE ROOF 'TERRAIN'
