The Ariake Gymnastics Centre / Nikken Sekkei + Shimizu Corporation
The Ariake Gymnastics Centre “A Wooden Vessel Floating in the Bay Area" - The Ariake Gymnastics Centre is designed to function in two phases; initially as a temporary international sports competition facility, then, after taking out the temporary spectator stands, it will be converted into a permanent exhibition hall. A unique feature of this facility is its extensive and generous use of timber throughout the building.
