The sultan of Kelantan, northern region of Malaysia, aspires to bring up his region on the front line of Malaysia’s development. KB stadium, a 40,000 seats facility, is in the heart of this move forward. Home of the Kelantan Red Warriors, this stadium aims to host soccer games at a national and international competition level … and so its design, using ETFE skin to bring as much natural light as possible while avoiding overheating during day time. A natural ventilation system has also been design to cool down the public.
