Who designed Spotify Camp Nou Barcelona?

Spotify Camp Nou was designed by a team of three Catalan architects: Francesc Mitjans, Lorenzo García-Barbón, and Josep Soteras Mauri. The project was commissioned in the early 1950s to create a modern, large-scale stadium that could accommodate FC Barcelona’s growing fanbase.

  • Francesc Mitjans was the lead architect and a cousin of then-club president Francesc Miró-Sans. He was known for his work in modernist architecture in Catalonia.
  • Josep Soteras Mauri, another key figure, contributed extensive expertise in sports architecture.
  • Lorenzo García-Barbón also played a supporting role in the planning and execution phases.

Who built Camp Nou?

Francesc Mitjans Miro was the architect of Spotify Camp Nou, the home stadium of FC Barcelona. He wanted to create a stadium that would be both a home for FC Barcelona and a symbol of Catalan identity. He designed the stadium with a simple, modernist style that was inspired by the surrounding architecture of Barcelona. Mitjans Miro's work is characterized by its use of simple, geometric forms and its emphasis on natural light. Camp Nou is now a cultural icon in Barcelona and a popular tourist destination.

Facts about Camp Nou

Design & architecture of Spotify Camp Nou Barcelona

Structure

The stadium was built using reinforced concrete and features a bowl-shaped design. This allowed for a large seating capacity while maintaining good sightlines from all angles. The curved shape of the stands also helped improve acoustics and crowd atmosphere.

Capacity

When it opened in 1957, Spotify Camp Nou could hold about 99,000 spectators, making it the largest stadium in Europe. Over the years, minor changes have been made, but the core structure has remained the same

Open layout

The stadium has an open-roof design, with no covering over the stands. This allows for natural light to reach the entire pitch and adds to the openness of the space, though it does leave spectators exposed to weather conditions.
