This terminal will provide connections to existing and new transport infrastructure and will be able to meet 31 million passengers a year, of which 24 million will be international passengers.
At the heart of the concept is a 10,000m central garden space, which will be connected to other parts of the airport through landscaped pedestrian routes.
To meet sustainable design objectives, the building is designed to use natural light at a maximum level while controlling solar gain.
Furthermore, the design also includes extensive vegetation, displacement ventilation and low water consumption.
