Populous designs 45,000 capacity stadium for Malaysia
Kansas-based architect Populous has unveiled the design for the Shah Alam Sports Complex in Selangor, Malaysia that will replace the 25-year-old Shah Alam Stadium.

Populous worked alongside Malaysian practice Hijjas Architects + Planners on a design that mixes a modern stadium vibe with traditional Malaysian features.

The 45,000 capacity stadium will mirror the original’s silhouette and curved roof and will meet FIFA’s standards for international football.

    A fixed roof made of double-layered ETFE cushions will let light in while a sliding pitch that can move in and out along the length of the stadium will let the venue host other sporting events and concerts.

    The stadium will sit in a 310,000-sq-m garden complex with a multi-purpose hall, training grounds and cultural spaces.

    The old Shah Alam Stadium will be demolished, and the new stadium is due to open in 2029.

    Brett Wightman, Populous’ director, said: “The new stadium will be part of a landmark active and thriving community development where people can live, worship, work and play.”
