Estadio Diablos Baseball Stadium, Mexico City

Estadio Diablos is the new stadium design for baseball team Los Diablos Rojos del Mexico by Alonso de Garay (ADG) and Francisco Gonzalez-Pulido (JAHN), to be located within the sports complex of Magdalena Mixhuca in Mexico City.The arena will have a monumental lightweight roof structure resembling Diablos’ trident, which drastically contrasts the predictable roof geometry that has historically defined baseball stadiums around the world. Indicative of the sky, the roof design is sharp, translucent, luminous and dynamic. Composed of lightweight steel wrapped in PTFE textile material, the roof will become an iconic symbol for the great City of Mexico.Estadio Diablos aims to reduce energy consumption, waste and emissions. The design strives for a Net-Zero building using passive systems with minimal HVAC integration and active water reduction systems. This goal of sustainable design including minimal ecological impact sets a strong precedent for a new standard of building within Mexico.
