What will the sports park of the future look like? (1/3) Bicycle parking

18 May 2026

What if a cycle shelter at your sports ground not only provided space for bicycles, but also contributed to circularity and climate adaptation?

We are constantly looking ahead. Not just to today’s challenges, but above all to tomorrow’s solutions. With this in mind, we have developed three inspiring concepts for the sports ground of the future.

First concept: the circular and climate-adaptive cycle shelter.

This cycle shelter concept demonstrates how a seemingly simple facility can become a tangible example of a sustainable solution. By combining circularity, climate adaptation and functionality, a cycle shelter is created that clearly illustrates how sports parks can be designed to be more future-proof.

A solution that brings together three sustainable innovations:

  • Water-permeable eco-grid tiles for natural rainwater infiltration
  • Solar lighting for public safety
  • Modular cycle racks made from recycled artificial turf

This gives worn-out artificial turf a new lease of life and creates a cycle shelter that is not only practical but also contributes to a greener and climate-resilient living environment.
