Olympic Aquatics Stadium
The Olympic Aquatics Stadium was a temporary aquatics center in the Barra Olympic Park in Rio de Janeiro. The venue hosted the swimming events and water polo finals at the 2016 Summer Olympics, and the para-swimming events for the 2016 Summer Paralympics.Structure
The center was designed as a temporary structure, a form of nomadic architecture similar to the Future Arena, which hosted handball. After completion of the two Games, it was dismantled and its parts were used in the construction of two new, different facilities.
The exterior of the building featured art by Brazilian artist Adriana Varejão.
