In detail

This new stadium of 40,000 seats will be the second largest stadium in the capital of Algeria after the stadium of 05 July. The future stadium of Baraki will allow the numerous soccer clubs of Algiers to have a big stadium with international standards for national and international meetings.

As for the stadium of Oran, the lighting of the new omnisport complex of Algiers, the Algerian capital, concerns both the interior and exterior of the enclosure - the functional study of the sports field and the night aesthetic added value of the exterior spaces and the structure.

The light allows the voids of the stadium and its annexes to stand out, and to make the metallic coating of the façade glow in the night.
Partially openwork, the structure of the sports complex is provided and criss-crossed, like the meshes of a basket; the low-angled white light hugs its forms, its junctions and uses the hollows to redraw the global silhouette.
