Studio Massaud Designs an Eco Building That Looks Like an Eruption

— August 11, 2010 — Eco
Located in Guadalajara, Mexico, this soccer stadium, designed by Studio Massaud, resembles an erupting volcano. The all-white membrane on the top was created to look like a ring of smoke. While we all know that volcanoes are disastrous to our environment, this is one volcano that is very eco-friendly.

Studio Massaud ensured that the volcanic soccer stadium uses collected rainwater for watering the pitch. It also features a naturally ventilated parking garage that holds up to 8,500 cars. Take a look through the gallery to see this extraordinary volcanic soccer stadium.
