機場設計新穎，采用一系列傾斜的金屬拱門和鋼梁，為航站樓起伏的屋頂結構提供支撐，并在天空中呈現(xiàn)出獨特的輪廓。

在全球豪華航空旅行和中轉(zhuǎn)機機場的競爭中，中場航站樓綜合體發(fā)揮著至關重要的作用，該中場航站樓綜合體年旅客吞吐量將高達8000萬，以滿足快速擴張的首都發(fā)展需求。航站樓設計和工程建設克服了復雜功能所帶來的巨大挑戰(zhàn)，達到了卓越的技術和材料工藝水平。經(jīng)過優(yōu)化的X造型以及寬闊的巨大拱門最大限度地減少了乘客的步行時間。長180米的橋接，大跨度傾斜拱門確保了50米高的無柱出發(fā)大廳設計——一個公共中庭，可提供開放的室外空間。

KPF團隊采用定制化設計流程，既重視項目的復雜性，又重視項目的細節(jié)。起伏的拱門在視覺上與屋頂分離，使建筑看起來更加輕盈，更具質(zhì)感。通過屋頂優(yōu)化設計，團隊將最初的15萬塊獨特的面板減少至1.5萬塊。各轉(zhuǎn)彎處均采用了無縫過渡和銜接，例如漸變成家具的地面以及滲透建筑物的景觀。

阿布扎比新航站樓的各個樓層都將給乘客帶來全新的體驗。甚至在某些時刻，人們在轉(zhuǎn)機時會覺得是身在阿布扎比這座城市。在微觀層面，尋路標識設計體現(xiàn)了當?shù)匚幕厣?。采用圖案而不是數(shù)字，這體現(xiàn)了伊斯蘭藝術的傳統(tǒng)——從地毯到采石場。連續(xù)天花材料區(qū)別于傳統(tǒng)材料，既能反射光線又能降低噪音。

The groundbreaking airport features a series of leaning metal arches and steel beams that support the terminaI’s unduIating roof structure and highIight its dramatic profiIe against the sky.

Dominating a key position in the global race for luxury air travel and transfer points, the Midfield Terminal Complex will process up to 80 million passengers each year to meet the needs of the rapidly expanding capital. The terminal’s design and engineering overcomes significant challenges intrinsic to its complex program, achieving unsurpassed levels of technical and material craft. Its modified, X form minimizes passenger walking times, complemented by sweeping, monumental arches. Each bridging 180 meters, the long-span, leaning arches make possible the nearly column-free, 50-meterhigh space of the Departure Hall – a civic atrium that provides an open, outdoor atmosphere.

KPF’s team engaged in a bespoke design process that valued the project’s incredible complexity equally to its most intricate details. The undulating arches visually separate from the roof,reinforcing the project’s lightweight quality and feel. Originally composed of 150,000 unique panels,the team rationalized the roof down to 15,000 pieces. Seamless transitions – flooring that turns into furniture, landscaping that permeates the building – illustrate careful consideration at every turn.

Passenger experience will be transformed at every level of Abu Dhabi’s new terminal. Certain moments remind the majority of transfers that they are, in fact, in the city of Abu Dhabi. At the micro level, wayfinding elements remain culturally sensitive. Patterns, rather than figures, echo the traditions of Islamic art – carried through from the carpeting to the quarry stone. The continuous ceiling needs to both reflect light and control sound, resolved by challenging conventional material choices.
