Shougang Ice Hockey Arena National Sports Bureau Winter Training Center Ice Hockey Rink
The Beijing Shougang Ice Hockey Arena utilized an industrial aesthetic to bring a new dimension to the national sports training program in preparation of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics. Located in a sprawling former industrial steel plant that has been adapted into a national winter sports training campus in China, the Shougang Hockey Arena is a facility dedicated to producing top-level talent in pursuit of Gold at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics. As part of the national push for the development of winter sports by the Chinese government, this building was designed to be a multi-functional arena that can be transformed from its core function as the training center for the men’s and women’s hockey team into a basketball stadium or a performance center. With inspiration from Shougang’s industrial heritage, we developed a truly unique, world-class Winter Olympic facility that sets the
bar for China’s future sports developments.
