The building is distinguished by excellent energy efficiency and sustainability.

One of the most striking features of the complex is the highly energy-efficient ventilation concept, which forms an integral part of the design. This helps to give the building a transparent, somewhat technical look. The concept is based on natural ventilation generated in the steeple-like glass ‘sun chimney’ that towers above the rectangular sports complex. This ‘solar chimney’ has the additional advantage of allowing a 25-meter climbing wall to be included in the facilities offered.
