We are starting to see more and more wave pool concepts popping up, but this one seems like it would be a pretty epic addition to city life. Not only would MJA Studio’s design function as a wave pool for public use and a ‘surf stadium’ for contests and events, but it’s a mixed-use development with grand intentions of boosting the community’s economy and overall well being. Imagine what the WSL would do with surf stadiums… Seems far-fetched, but who knows, maybe we’ll have pro surf teams battling it out in the heart of cities around the world. This concept is for the Australian city of Subiaco and proposes the demolition of the cities current football stadium and replacing it with a Multi-use Surf Park. Hopefully this project becomes realized and we can see how well the prototype works.
