Lansdowne Road stadium in Dublin has reopened as the Aviva Stadium. Apparently it hosted its first game of rugby in 1878 and has been redesigned by global architects Populous and Dublin-based architects Scott Tallon Walker.
The design has been created to be sensitive to its surroundings with the North and South ends featuring dramatic dips to allow light to the houses behind. Sustainability was an important consideration in the design with many features including water collection to irrigate the pitch.
