Dorados Stadium

A stadium renovation project focused on reorientation, continuity, and integration with the riverfront.

The intervention reorganizes the existing structure through a new continuous envelope, establishing a clear relationship between the stadium and the adjacent river corridor. Rather than expanding the building, the project reframes its presence within the urban landscape.

The primary facade is oriented toward the river, transforming the stadium into an active edge along the linear park. Circulation, access points, and public spaces are reorganized to reinforce this directionality, connecting the stadium to its surroundings through bridges, esplanades, and pedestrian routes.

The envelope system operates as both structure and filter. A layered facade regulates light, ventilation, and visibility while unifying the existing volumes into a single architectural gesture. This system allows the stadium to function as an infrastructural element while maintaining permeability and openness.

Dorados Stadium is approached as a study in large-scale integration—where architecture mediates between infrastructure, landscape, and public space.
