Rippled Exterior Arenas

The National Gymnastics Arena by Broadway Malyan is Modern

— May 6, 2014 — Lifestyle
Broadway Malyan is responsible for constructing the National Gymnastics Arena in Azerbaijan. Not only did the firm have to come up with the overall architectural design, but they also created looks for the ticketing and overall graphics for the branding of the place.

The interior is extremely expansive, allowing people to participate in a number of different sports at the same time in the central court area. For seating, the building houses over 9,000 seats for people to come and observe various sporting events. According to DesignBoom, "at night, dynamic lighting will illuminate the arena making it appear as three distinct bands rendered in Azerbaijan’s national colors."

Broadway Malyan did an excellent job with conceiving not just the structural design, but the graphics and everything else in terms of branding that went into the project.
