The Brantas Stadium was designed as a competition venue in accordance with KEMENPORA, AFC and FIFA standards with a capacity of 10,000 people. To support the smooth running of matches, circulation between players, visitors, media and services is designed taking into account emergency conditions. Brantas Stadium can be used by “all”. Children, adults, the elderly and the disabled can easily access this area 24/7 through the availability of controlled permeable access. The active frontage and interwoven axes of this area create a close relationship between the stadium and urban space
The stadium is designed to be integrated with the surrounding area through a “woven” axis of various functions, with the plaza as the main link. This area can accommodate various sports-related activities so it is hoped that it can become one of the new tourist magnets in Batu City. Apart from that, the Brantas Stadium area is also intended as a social hub for the community with supporting facilities that are open to the public 24/7. Apart from the positive social impact, the diversity of facilities will make this area more sustainable from an economic perspective.
Each spectator stand is equipped with emergency stairs within a 25m radius. On matchdays, the area around the stadium can have temporary barricades installed for security checks. Permeable access areas that are integrated with city space with plazas as the main core create inclusive areas that are safe, comfortable and attractive.
The building facade adopts tropical architectural principles with wide overhangs. Shading the room from rain and hot sun while creating semi-indoor-outdoor spaces (hallways) that make the stadium look unique. The stadium facade is also formed through multifunctional active commercial spaces with direct openings to urban space which creates a mutually beneficial relationship between the stadium, society and urban space.
The design seeks to maintain the “scale” of the existing field so that it remains in harmony with the scale of the dynamic surrounding environment. Area design that is adaptive to the contour, maintains the elevation of the existing field, and utilizes elevation differences for supporting facilities such as an amphitheater, storm water reservoir and absorption area. Brantas Stadium and the surrounding area are also designed to optimize the reuse of rainwater before it is processed in the rainwater treatment facility under the stands. The construction also maintains the trees around the stadium. Because apart from being an absorption area, this also aims to maintain the distinctive characteristics of the Brantas Stadium.
