Projects
Lusail Stadium
The showpiece finale of the FIFA World Cup 2022 requires nothing less than a showpiece stadium and this is evident throughout the design of this magnificent structure. A celebration of culture created by replicating the characteristics of the fanar lantern is brought to life by the interplay of light and shadows which dominate the visual aesthetics for the viewer.
Humbly including decorative motifs of designs seen on Arab pieces of art and traditional household items such as bowls, Lusail Stadium is recognition of Qatar’s past combing with its future. Well connected by the newly operated Doha Metro, the stadium sits 15km north of central Doha in the newly formed city of Lusail and places much emphasis on Qatar’s ambitions to move to a more sustainable, greener future.
