© 2022The study aims to evaluate 16 stadiums having different façade features in a comparative manner from a perceptual point of view. Therefore, the 16 stadiums constructed between 2011 and 2021 in Turkey were classified according to their facade and roof, shell forms and shell colors. The semantic differentiation scale consisting of adjective pairs of likability, complexity, impressiveness, familiarity and environmental compatibility that were found valid and reliable in previous studies was used to evaluate the selected stadiums. The means and standard deviations values were determined. Thereafter, the One-Way Analysis of Variance method was used in order to examine the impact of variables like gender and profession. The study concluded that stadiums with a circular shape and a neutral color whose covers are separete from façade, are more popular and evaluated more positively. Besides, women have a more negative approach than men and architects have a more positive approach than lay-persons (not-architect).
