Project
The project is an ambitious and creative take on airport design. The main inspiration behind the design is the beauty and elegance of flowers, specifically tulips, and roses. The biomimicry exterior is inspired by the flower bud and petal shapes to create the landmark of a country and provide a truly unique and memorable experience for travelers. The use of flower-inspired columns is a central element of the design, adding a unique and visually striking element to the terminal. These columns will be strategically placed throughout the terminal, serving not only as a design feature but also as functional elements supporting the structure. The overall design aims to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere, drawing inspiration from the natural beauty of flowers to create a more pleasant and enjoyable experience for travelers. The use of floral motifs in the design will also serve to create a distinct and memorable landmark for the country. The goal is to create an airport terminal that is not only functional and efficient but also visually appealing and memorable. This approach of incorporating nature-inspired design will make the airport a unique place and it will be a landmark of the country. The airport will be an architectural marvel, and the incorporation of flower-inspired columns will make it stand out among other airports. This project is an exciting opportunity to push the boundaries of airport design and create a truly memorable and beautiful space for travelers.

Check-in Point
An airport check-in point in the future consists of self-help machines that travelers use to check in for their flights. These machines allow travelers to print their boarding pass and baggage tag, as well as check in any luggage they may be bringing with them. The floral column not only serves as a structural element, but also provides seating for travelers. This design allows for an efficient and comfortable check-in process for passengers, with the ability for them to check in and print their boarding pass and baggage tag using self-help machines and then sit and wait for their flight.

The columns are adorned with intricate and realistic floral designs, creating a serene and tranquil atmosphere. The fabric used for the columns is also flexible, allowing it to move gently in the breeze, giving the appearance of real flowers swaying in the wind. The entrance is also illuminated with soft lighting, highlighting the beauty of the floral columns. The overall aesthetic of the entrance is elegant, sophisticated, and welcoming, which sets the tone for the premium lounge experience. The use of floral columns made of flexible fabric creates a unique and memorable entrance, making it an inviting and special place for travelers to relax and unwind before their flight.
