Expansion proposal for Etihad Stadium that retains the essence of the original.
This Pattern proposal brought together the expertise of the original design team (including Pattern Director Dipesh Patel) to expand the existing Etihad stadium to a capacity of 80,000.
Based on the simple idea that any expansion should respect the original design, the scheme proposed a larger upper tier, saddle-bowl geometry, increased hospitality offer, and a cable-net roof that would allow continuous operation of the stadium.
