Brief information about the project from an architectural point of view:
|
This is not the first and certainly not the last product of the studio’s fascination with aeronautics - and the fascination is one that is justified by the function. The curve of the façade resembles a section through an aeroplane. The low cost ethos of budget airlines is well reflected in the simple structural solutions, spare interiors and inexpensive materials.
