reindeer Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Gremio Arena should of been chosen, but the Allianz Parque and Independencia aren't beautiful looking stadiums, just my opinion I must stress. It's should HAVE. I agree that Gremio is probably better for spectators than Beira Rio. I kind of like the traditional look of Independencia instead of a generic spaceship look of so many modern stadiums. It's not visually spectacular but looks like it has good views for spectators and can have a very intimate atmosphere. Allianz looks to be located in a very crowded part of the city so logistically it would have been complicated for WC matches plus it's too small for opening anyway.

Tony E Loves Architecture Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 About Independência I agree, but Allianz Parque? I just see it differently. I love Architecture, which with my passion for it, makes me be very critical, especially with Stadium Architecture. 10 of the 12 Stadiums for the 2014 World Cup, I think are nice looking Stadiums, Arena Baxaida in Curitiba could of done better and same with Estadio Beira-Rio in Porto Alegre. I'm just not that into Allianz Parque, but as I stress, just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cslopes54 Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Allianz design looks better than Pantanal, Beira rio, and Manaus to be . If they really make it shiny like in the renders or a fckn cool effect like Allianz Arena it'll just be too amazing . Me* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 I heared Curitiba could be stripped as a WC venue. Is it really behid schedule?

Reminds me of old Westfalenstadion, a bit old fashioned. Hopefully the final result will be better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony E Loves Architecture Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 7 Stadiums Completed (Fortaleza, Belo Horizonte, Salvador, Recife, Rio de Janeiro, Brasilia and now Natal), 5 to go (Porto Alegre, Manaus, Cuiaba, Sao Paulo and Curitiba). Porto Alegre is so close to completion, with the membrane in between the existing membrane left to put in place, rest of the seats installation, pitch is ready. Manaus is close aswell, with the Facade and Roof nearing completion, most seats in place and pitch getting ready. Cuiaba is progressing well, with seat installation starting, roof nearly finished, pitch progressing and greenery in corners starting to show. Sao Paulo, after that sad crane collapse and sad workers deaths, the Stadium is progressing, with Temporary 20,000 Seating structure being assembled, roof nearly finished, pitch ready. Curitiba is the furthest from Completion, with Curitiba given 4 weeks to sort out the mess, or lose it's host city World Cup spot. Pitch is in early stages, roof progressing slowly along with facade, and seats being installed. Overall, in my opinion, I think all Stadiums will be ready for The World Cup, Porto Alegre is making brilliant progress, Manaus has got back on track, Cuiaba is progressing well, Sao Paulo is progressing faster now and Curitiba is slowly getting there, just slower than the rest.

Bezzi Posted January 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 FIFA is right to charge, but I'm sure Curitiba will be in World Cup. In this same topic I posted pictures of the stadiums of the Confederations Cup on January 25 (page 27). Curitiba is visually more advanced than Recife, Rio and Brasilia at that time. The roof is almost done and the grass and chairs and are being installed. Brasilia Recife Salvador Rio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alphacarter Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 I'm probably far into the minority here, my favorites are Manaus and Natal. Especially Natal. It's just such a unique design that really comes to life at night. I just really like it. Great job I say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the works could be done in the same pace Recife did, nobody would be worried about the stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palette86 Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 Manaus is the best of those 3 pictures to me. Natal's stadium is good but I'm concerned if the it's rainy.I need more roof if I go there.Curitiba should hurry up . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
