Architecture news:<\/em>\u00a0<\/strong>The japanese government has chosen Kengo Kuma <\/strong>to design the Tokyo National stadium<\/em>, <\/strong>the building which will form the centerpiece of Tokyo 2020 olympic games.<\/strong>\u00a0The architect saw off competition from compatriot Toyo Ito<\/b>, who had also presented his vision for Tokyo Olympic Stadium<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The project had been controversially taken away from one of the world famous architects, the awarded british architect Zaha Hadid<\/a><\/strong>, amid concerns of increasing costs. kengo kuma and associates developed their proposal alongside construction company taisei corporation<\/strong>. A wide range of architectural styles were since the beginning the main cause for this theme being so\u00a0in loco!<\/em><\/p>\n

Kuma\u2019s scheme narrowly beat Ito\u2019s design, with the japan sport council panel judging the projects on the following criteria:<\/strong> reduction in cost and construction time, maintenance costs, holistic design concept, environmental program, structural design, and architectural planning. the final factor considered was a perceived sensitivity to japanese characteristics, perhaps something that counted against hadid and her design. the budget for the completed Tokyo National stadium has been set at \u00a5155 billion.<\/p>\n

Since the announcement, zaha hadid has provided a statement accusing japanese authorities of \u2018colluding\u2019 to ensure that her plans were not realized:<\/p>\n

\u2018we were honored to be selected to design a stadium that would enable japan to welcome the world for the 2019 rugby world cup and bring the 2020 olympic games to tokyo, before becoming a new home for japanese sport for many future generations. sadly the japanese authorities, with the support of some of those from our own profession in japan, have colluded to close the doors on the project to the world.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\u2018this shocking treatment of an international design and engineering team, as well as the respected japanese design companies with whom we worked, was not about design or budget. in fact much of our two years of detailed design work and the cost savings we recommended have been validated by the remarkable similarities of our original detailed stadium layout and our seating bowl configuration with those of the design announced today.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\u2018work would already be underway building the stadium if the original design team had simply been able to develop this original design, avoiding the increased costs of an 18 month delay and risk that it may not be ready in time for the 2020 games.\u2019<\/em> \u2014 zaha hadid<\/strong><\/p>\n
