The proposed design for the new Perth basketball arena has been carefully considered and principally designed around the idea of enhancing the game (basketball) for the spectators. Numerous Architectural design considerations have been made whilst designing the Complex. The Extreme angles of the interior foyers, the translucent cladding, the compact nature of the building, the renewable energy focused roof and most importantly the carefully arranged seating all drive the building to perform as; a structure that enhances the game and a structure that declares its architectural language. The materials of Polycarbonate, steel and concrete have been chosen both to reflect the modernity of the building but also to ensure an strong environmental performance. The translucent cladding and ceiling strung with lights allow for the building itself to become a spectacle as the sport does and makes the building float ethereally at night whilst the polished concrete floors and steel structure ground the building with strength and a feeling of presence whilst ensuring a high performance The Arena has been sited and planned centrally on the site and with minimal footprint to create a park space around the building further enhancing the buildings presence and publicly sustainable focus.
