It then moves on to discuss the various elements that make up a sports facility, including seating, lighting, and playing surfaces.Throughout the book, Tattersall provides numerous examples of iconic sports facilities from around the world, including Wembley Stadium, Lord's Cricket Ground, and the All England Lawn Tennis Club. He also explores the challenges that architects and designers face when creating sporting venues, such as balancing the need for functionality with aesthetic considerations.In addition to discussing the design of sports facilities, the book also looks at the role that sports architecture plays in shaping the identity of a city or region. Tattersall argues that sports facilities can serve as important cultural landmarks, and can help to promote a sense of community and pride among local residents.Overall, Sporting Architecture is a fascinating read for anyone interested in sports or architecture.
