Olympic Village
Plaza
Operation BATON,” which stands for
Building ‘Athlete’s Village’ with the
Timber of the Nation, plus the
Athlete’s Village Plaza
Japan National Stadium
Prominent Japanese architect Kengo
Kuma, and the designer behind the
new 68,000-seat National Stadium, has
said the buildings symbolize a “new
period of natural design” and the
symbolic end of concrete. The stadium
has been described as a timber
temple, with a lattice of beams and
joists to support its roof.
The design team sourced forest-
certified wood from all 47
prefectures in Japan.
Ariake Gymnastics Centre
One of the largest timber-framed roofs in the
world spans 90 metres over the arena.
Timber is used wherever possible, specifically
in the roof frame structure, facade, spectator
seats and exterior walls, while carefully
considering the characteristics of wood in each
application.

95% of the venues in Paris will be
existing or temporary, with only the
athletes’ village and aquatics centre
constructed from scratch.
French government passed
sustainability law ensuring all new
public buildings are built from at
least 50% timber or other natural
materials.

Designed with circular economy principles to reuse materials during
deconstruction the village will be repurposed for social housing
Paris - Demountable & Reusable
© Patrick Tourneboeuf
A temporary, iconic, modular, demountable an
d reusable building of 10,000 m² on a listed
site in the heart of Paris.
For Olympic judo and wrestling events and the
Paralympic wheelchair rugby and para-judo
events
Paris - Olympic Aquatics Centre
©Getty Images
The venue’s main hall is topped by a 5,000
sqm glue-laminated timber roof that spans
89 metres but is only 50 centimetres in
diameter.
The curved roof is raised at the sides to
accommodate the stands while dipping in
the middle to reduce the volume of the
space, making it more efficient to heat.
“By using wood for this
monumental structure, the
proposal doubles the required
minimum percentage of bio-
sourced materials, meeting the
organising committees’
requirements for sustainability.”
What else can we do with timber?
Thinking outside of structural
construction….

Editor's Notes

  1. At the most recent Games in Tokyo and next years Games in Paris there have been next level ideas for utilising the Ulitmate Rewneable. How is Australia going to measure up to this stiff competition.
  2. The 40,000 pieces of sustainably grown Japanese cypress, cedar and larch, which were "borrowed" from local governments across the country to create the plaza will be re-used, once it’s disassembled.  
  3. It will be used as a legacy in local governments' public facilities and elsewhere.
  4. Wood lines the interior spaces to help create a warm and tactile environment. It has also been used to furnish the athletes' dressing rooms and to create benches in recreation spaces. One of the main characteristics of the stadium is that it uses Japanese wood, which has a lower impact on the environment than imported timber, in the eaves that line the outer periphery, the roof trusses and the interior of the stadium. The design team sourced forest-certified wood from all 47 prefectures in Japan, in a deliberate allusion to the iconic Meiji Shrine, whose grove was created with trees donated from throughout the country. Most of the components of the stadium were assembled in modules, making it easier to replace the timber with new wood when it deteriorates with age.
  5. To repurposed for social housing using circular economy thinking- the interior walls of the Village buildings constructed for the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games have been specially designed to be dismantled and the majority of materials reused.  The circular economy’s principles will be applied through a strategy to reuse materials during deconstruction. They will hand over a new, eco-responsible, functional neighbourhood, which will blend into the city of the future, to the community in 2025. After the Games, the neighbourhood will feature: More than 2,800 new housing units (2,000 family homes, 800 residence units) 1 student residence 1 hotel 2 new schools 6 hectares of green spaces incl. a public park in the centre of the neighbourhood Planted areas for pedestrians and non-motorised vehicles offices, other business premises and services, neighbourhood shops
  6. took only 10 months  thanks to our off-site construction principle. The structure, consisting of 44 glulam arches representing a total of 500 tonnes of wood, was prefabricated in the workshop on a human scale and then assembled on site in 3 months. . Its structure, conceived as a sum of modular elements, will be able to be reborn in multiple structures on other sites after its dismantling in autumn 2024.
  7. It will be the only major facility built for the 2024 Olympic Games as all the other events will be hosted in existing venues or temporary structures.

  15. Nothing new about using timber for landscape architecture or seating or desks What is new is the focus on the volume of embodied carbon in building materials Embodied carbon represents the millions of tons of carbon emissions released during the lifecycle of building materials, including extraction, manufacturing, transport, construction, and disposal. The basic facts are that timber stores carbon (and a lot of it). When timber is harvested and used in buildings, in landscape architecture, public seating, this allows room for more trees to grow and store more carbon. You see where this is leading – the more timber we use in construction, the more we help the environment. And then more entries can be made on the right side of Olympic Carbon Budget ledger.
  16. Think outside of the box – what can mass timber offcuts be used for?
  17. So many reception desks required
  18. Keys & Passes & Name Badges
