London 2012 Olympic Stadium
Populous was also part of the design team for ANZ Stadium in Sydney, Etihad Stadium and the MCG in Melbourne.
Populous senior principal and head of Asia Pacific region, Paul Henry, said it is a great honour to have won the consultancy and it is critical to get this stage of the project right.
“The PDP is the foundation stone to create a stadium not just for now, or the immediate future, but for generations to come. We will use the very best of our Australian and global expertise to create a cultural and sporting landmark, future proofed and at the cutting edge of stadium design,” he said.
“The Western Australian Government has a big vision for an integrated sports and leisure complex at Burswood. The stadium must integrate with all other planned developments at Burswood creating a ‘string of pearls’. Importantly, the stadium will be designed for legacy. It will be capable of hosting the best in international events, but it will also be an environmentally sustainable, well planned, well integrated community asset for the people of Western Australian.”
