The project consists of the design of one clear architectural mark: a long wall that gives a new order to the heterogeneous and fragmented outdoor space nearby the Departure Terminal.
The design of this polycarbonate façade delineates a new and unique relationship between interior and exterior.
The new translucent façade of the airport defines a new sense of identity of the structure, giving glimpses of an original sequence of exterior spaces through a system of openings.
The entrance to the Terminal occurs through an open-air atrium, which is placed in front of the existing hall and it is a furnished resting place from which both interior and exterior paths begin. The outdoor space, which is defined by the new translucent wall, is a long garden developed along the southern existing façade and it offers various facilities and amenities linked directly to the activities that take place inside the Terminal itself.
The new greenery is blended with the existing trees and it defines a sequence of different shaded areas including paths, resting places and food courts.
The new polycarbonate wall is not just a limit but it is also a threshold to cross. The design of this curtain wall provides a series of openings which define a rhythm, a new architectural composition. While the definition of the main passenger entrances is provided by two portals which interrupt the geometry of the wall, other smaller openings, aligned to the base of the wall, allow a dynamic view between interior and exterior. The flexibility of this new system of openings, which can be declined both as windows and as advertising spaces, gives a unique meaning to the façade: it is not just a wall but an urban scenario.
