Architect explains how SoFi Stadium's lake recycles 26 million gallons of water
SoFi Stadium in Inglewood is one of the most visually stunning buildings in the country. It’s a massive stadium with unique features, including an artificial lake next to it. The lake serves a dual purpose, however, and is very environmentally friendly.It helps capture rain water and recycle it so that it can be used in the irrigation system, thus reducing the amount of water used around the complex. In fact, it creates a net reduction of about 26 million gallons of water per year.
So while it look spectacular next to the stadium, it’s also beneficial for the environment to reduce water usage.
In a video shared by the Rams, architect Kush Parekh of Studio-MLA describes how the system works and where the inspiration came from.
