Abstract

The thesis focuses on the design of tennis stadiums with an emphasis on resolving functional and spatial relationships, with particular attention given to the flexibility of the structure and its potential for adaptation into an ecological center. It explores principles of spatial organization that ensure the efficient operation of sports facilities while simultaneously enabling their transformation into multifunctional spaces for sports, recreation, culture, and education through the integration of sustainable architectural elements. The research highlights the importance of such transformations within the context of contemporary urban development. emphasizing responsible management to enhance ecological, social, and economic aspects.
