The Wooden Stadium

Architectural firm Zaha Hadid Architects has been commissioned to build the first-ever football stadium made entirely out of wood.

The company won a competition held by Forest Green Rovers FC welcoming suggestions for their new stadium design. What's more, as well as being entirely made out of wood, the stadium will be fully fuelled by sustainable energy sources, making it the greenest football stadium in the world.

The proposed aesthetic of the stadium looks beautfiul, and this could set a precedent for larger football clubs to go down a similar path when rennovating their stadia. Going green is increasingly important in our environmental context given the speed at which it seems to be deteriorating. 

An innovative move from Forest Green Rovers, just one thing to remember: no smoking please.
