Dan Meis: Designing a stadium

How an innovative architect Dan Meis creates inspiring sporting arenas.

Dan Meis has developed a reputation for out-of-the-box, innovative thinking while creating projects that redefine their respective building types. This include a β€œtransformable” venue in Japan that mechanically changes from arena to stadium. He also led the design for the Staples Center in Los Angeles.

Host and professional football player Neil Danns gets an exclusive insight into the innovative sports architect's creative process reflected in past, present and future projects, including Everton FC’s new football stadium, a tennis centre in Los Angeles and a pitch for a yet to be named project.

Neil examines the creativity it takes to bring a design to life, exploring the process of the designs, how progress is made and how the ever-present challenges are overcome.
