Dalslandsring Center / karlsson wachenfeldt arkitekter

By — Filed under: Sports Architecture , ,

Our friend Mattias Karlsson from karlsson wachenfeldt arkitekter sent us this info on their latest project. Dalslandsring is a new center for all kinds of motorsport in the small community of Färgelanda in Dalsland, . It will accomodate over 30 000 spectators and includes 5 different race tracks, exhibition area, driver education, fire station, motel, camping and restaurants.

Dalslandsring is situated in the car-crazy west sweden and it´s one piece of a puzzle to draw interested visitors to the area. This is to be a facility who stands for a new generation of enviromentally friendly racing. Cars runs on eco-fuels, Dalslandsring produces its own energy and spectators arrive by train.

The Project is based around a central complex with spectator stands, service and the racecontrol tower.
