| | Design Build Network - National Stadium, Beijing |
 | | The main requirements from the client, the National Stadium Company, were to create a bold, stand-out, world-class stadium, and to design in as much flexibility as possible for future use. |
 | | The 100,000-seat National Stadium in Beijing is a multi-use sports venue and will be ready for the 2008 Olympic Games. |
 | | It also to be aware of the different uses of the stadium; for example, when used as an athletics stadium, the most important view is at the finish line of the running track but when used for football, the best views are at the centre line. |
