Task is to connect large-span glued wooden structures with equestrian technology. Combination of traditional material for structural elements with original lines and details of the wooden facades creates a unique and memorable spectacular image. Concrete is only used for foundations and exterior staircases (due to fire safety regulations).

Use of rhythm, drawing of details simple but expressive silhouette of structure create impression of voluminous & majestic structure. Color scheme is as close to natural as possible, limited to shades of golden wood. Emerald-gray roof slopes echo surrounding greenery. Interiors continue topic of wooden facade structures, using scale of elements to more proportionate human one.

Trunks of mighty pines & firs that rise up behind windows of Arena are part of rhythmic series of vertical structural elements with their syncopating rhythm.

Pitched roof with far-projecting eaves hovers like flying ship over Arena's field, supported by mighty wooden frames.
