Populous has been chosen by AC Milan and FC Internazionale Milano as the architect for their new stadium. The scheme, named The Cathedral, will create the greatest stadium in Europe with a bespoke seating bowl that will bring fans closer to the action than ever before and create an unforgettable atmosphere. The centrepiece of a new mixed-use masterplan development, The Cathedral will become a global icon – providing a unique home for the clubs.

This design is not for a generic stadium that could be found in Moscow or Manchester; it is a design that draws inspiration from two of Milano’s most iconic buildings, the Duomo and the Galleria. Set in the most sustainable sports and entertainment district in Europe, the stadium will create a new icon for Milano.
