Stadique Rouen

The Kindarena Sport Hall, located in Rouen, France, is designed by Dominique Perrault as a result of an international architecture competition organized in 2006 and officially opened on late 2012. The entrance step system creates a new topography of the site that emphasizes public access and creates a new landmark in the city. People gather here when the weather is good, talking to each other with the impressive view of the city of Rouen.

The roof, as an expressive reflection of the stairs, gets thiner and thiner till the edge. The stainless steel surface reflects the surrounding, adding an ever-changing layer of the roof.
