About

The muni­ci­pa­lity council of Helmond in The Nether­lands has given the green light for Campus de Braak in Helmond. The plans for the project were put on hold at the begin­ning of this year after a diffe­rence of opinion with parther profes­sional soccer club Helmond Sport about the program of requi­re­ments, the design and the busi­ness case.

Moedersch­eim­Moonen Archi­tects, Faul­k­ner­Browns and CULD were asked to team up to create a design tail­ored to the new brief. Now that the city council also supports the renewed plan, the project can restart.

Orga­ni­sa­tion

In the design, the number of seats has been reduced to 3,600 places which creates more space for the busi­ness areas for Helmond Sport. Addi­tional space has also been created for the youth academy of the soccer club. With the colla­bo­ra­tion of the muni­ci­pa­lity of Helmond, the OMO school group and the other users, a new design has been deve­loped which is centered around multi-func­tion­a­lity.

In addi­tion, the exte­rior has also been deve­loped. Despite the fact that there are now only two large stands, the campus exudes a ‘stadium feeling’ through the dynamic verti­cality of the façades. In the case of expan­sion in the future, two new stands can be added in the current buil­ding enve­lope.

Multi-func­tion­a­lity

Multi-func­tion­a­lity is the essence of the new campus. The campus will be home to Helmond Sport and the Helmond Prac­tice School. The design includes a NOC * NSF sports hall where the amateur foot­ball clubs Helmondia and Mulo will be accom­mo­dated. Addi­tio­nally, a new loca­tion for JvdI De Fysio­club will be created. Space for indi­vi­dual sports and rela­xa­tion is also incor­po­rated with the addi­tion of a running track and shared path for pede­strians and cyclists.

The new buil­ding is surrounded by a central corridor that connects all entry­ways with each other and the surroun­ding neigh­bor­hoods. Thanks to the connec­tion between the campus and the surroun­ding area, Campus de Braak will become an acces­sible meeting and recrea­tional envi­ron­ment for the entire city.
