Text description provided by the architects. The entirely transparent building complex accommodates an ice rink, an indoor swim center with a variety of pools, a sauna and a restaurant. An elevated ice skating track, unprecedented in Europe, runs as a round circuit through every part of the building providing exciting views inside and outside. An intelligent cross-linking of the building services allows for the seemingly contradictory climatic requirements of an ice and swimming facility to operate in an extremely energy efficient manner, making it the first ice sports facility in the European Union’s Green Building Program. SCHULITZ Architekten won the highly profiled international architecture competition in 2007.
