Nou Camp projects: Foster vs Vidal

[Guardian]

We all know that the current board is planning to modernize Nou Camp following Norman Foster's project, but now Laporta and co are considering to take into account another very ambitious project that could see Barcelona playing in a stadium built on artificial island off the catalan coast. The project is designed by a local architect named Emil Vidal and could make the new Camp Nou the most impressive stadium in the world. So my question is which project do you prefer? The classic version of Foster or the pricy super futuristic design of Emil Vidal?

Sir Norman Foster's project:

Vidal's project

man the one in the ocean is so futristic, but how can we afford.... and it seems unsafe.. and unrealistic the colorful one looks amazing i am for it

 

[Snyde]

There is no way we are going for the second one. As it is the Foster project will cost too much.

 

[Necro Spaaw]

first one, since its a reconstruction, not a start from the scratch and therefore cheaper. besides i love it..
idk the island one also looks nice, but its kinda pointless to do that..
all i really want is a closed roof, that can open also.. at will, so that ppl or the players dont get wet when its rainy or cold

anyways, both look amazing! its gonna be capped to 120k people max?

How the hell do they plan on getting 100k people into that seaside stadium along one access road? No way is that viable.

 

[Barcaman]

Good question. The stadium at sea looks spectacular though.

There's no cars on there, and by the looks of things the road is as wide as the pitch. Everyone will be going in one direction. It is more viable than it first seems.

There needs to be some kind of parking or we can kiss goodbye to our 5 star status, one of the provisos for 5 star rating is the provision of parking on matchdays.

 

[diegomessi]

it looks as if the parking lots are before the walking bridge.. man it looks so futuristic... but is this possible

I'm against Vidal's project for a few reasons. It will cost too much, doesn't seem all that realistic & I hate the idea of leaving Camp Nou. Leaving all the history that goes with it behind :sad:

Im sure that parking will have been taken into consideration.

Having said all that, while i feel the ocean one looks better and is very attractive, i voted for norman foster's one because it is the one which makes the most sense.

Vidal project seems great but a little bit dangerous

i Voted Foster

 

[Cule Angles]

I've voted for Foster's because I wouldn't want to see the club leave Camp Nou which is in a great location especially given the new metro line which will see the ground on a direct line to the airport and the city centre.

Foster for two reasons. First being, the Camp Nou has so much history, it would be sad leaving it, plus the reconstruction looks good. Secondly, as much as Vidal's project is amazing, it would cost us a fortune.
