Chelsea's Submit Application For New Stadium

Recommended Posts

Looks fantastic, much better than concrete and steel

 

'The term does not derive from the word "brutal," but originates from the French béton brut, or "raw concrete," a term used by Le Corbusier to describe his choice of material.'

There's clearly a difference between that and the dull concrete at our ground

Well the difference is that brutalist buildings tend to be made almost entirely out of dull concrete. The only part of those photos that look brutalist to me are the horrible stairs which already look weathered in the drawings

Ok I'll bow down to your knowledge on this

Herzog and de Meuron are building a skyscraper in Paris too, looks good but if we're talking stadiums Stade Ocean, Havre's ground is fantastic as is the Allianz Riveira

Slight overreaction, anyone?

These are just some of the primary templates - of course, it'll be changed into something more socially acceptable in the end.

But I do like Herzog & Meuron's approach - away from the typical stadium design of today.

If they can integrate brick walls and the generous space into the final product, it'll look terrific.

 

Only in London?
