The building of the Arena represents
a dome-shaped shell spanning a
space 80 by 80 metres and 20 m high,
without any interior supports. The
prefabricated dome consists of a shell
supported by 28 folded plate elements.
The interior of the building is
zoned into two areas. The upper zone
includes the competition hall, a lobby,
63
cloak rooms, and snack bars. The
bottom part is designed for training
halls and service rooms. There is an
intermediate zone between the two
housing locker rooms and other
spaces which service open tennis
courts in summer and skating rinks in
winter. Each zone has a separate
entrance and can function independently
from the rest.
