The ice skating stadium accommodates 3,000 spectators and is developed in connection to the existing stadium at the Odense Sports Centre. A entry foyer in glass and steel creates a link between the two facilities. Simple forms and vast planes illustrate the stadium’s distinctive sloping profile, which stems from the steel truss construction. The facades on the new building are clad in light concrete, black steel panels and fire engine red steel doors, which clearly contrast each other. The building incorporates a cold-reflecting blanket to limit the energy consumed for cooling of the stadium and the rink itself. The construction around the rink is designed to be thermally passive, which makes it easier to maintain the permanent freezing points in the rink’s substrate.
