Kaohsiung International Airport new terminal

Master Planning and Schematic Design of the New Terminal of Kaohsiung International Airport
「高雄國際機場新航廈綜合規劃暨基本設計」委託技術服務案

Kaohsiung International Airport (KHH), the second large airport in Taiwan, opened in 1997. Pursuant to the vision laid out in the “Kaohsiung International Airport 2035 Overall Plan”, we proposed to combine the new terminal, ground transportation center and the existing international terminal. Terminal and landscape design is based on the concept of gliding seagulls and waves, while the roof resembles an oil-paper umbrella from Meinung. The roof transforms the indoor space into an urban theater. The new terminal design combines transportation, industry, and imageries of the ocean and local culture to create an international airport belonging to the port city of Kaohsiung.

高雄國際機場於1997年啟用，為台灣第二大國際機場，本案依循「高雄國際機場2035年整體規劃」短、中期建設發展計畫，以集中與韌性為主軸，將新航廈、轉運中心與既有國際航廈三者整合為一。新航廈設計以翱翔天際的海鷗與白浪意象塑造鮮明的建築與景觀造型，屋頂以美濃油紙傘為概念，轉化室內空間意象為傘下的都市戲棚。結合運輸、產業、海洋與文化的意象，打造屬於高雄海洋之都的國際機場。
