Construction
The construction of the spectator stadium began in 2012 with a cost of approximately US$318 Million.[1] Dar Al-Handasah designed the sports arena having been commissioned by the Qatar Olympic Committee.[citation needed] The arena was designed to reflect the local Qatari culture featuring the colors of the sea, pearls and the desert sands blended with a central dome inspired by the classic Islamic architecture.[citation needed] The building is designed in a way to reduce the cooling demand by using fritting, shading and bright finishing to minimize the heat effects. It also optimizes the ratio of opaque and glazed walls.[citation needed]
