Kuwait International Airport -- by Foster + Partner


Designs unveiled for Kuwait International Airport

Kuwait International Airport is planned to significantly increase capacity and establish a new regional air hub in the Gulf – the project’s strategic aims will be matched by a state-of-the-art terminal building, which will provide the highest levels of comfort for passengers and will set a new environmental benchmark for airport buildings. Its design is rooted in a sense of place, responsive to the climate of one of the hottest inhabited environments on earth and inspired by local forms and materials.







 *Each terminal will have three symmetrical wings, with each facade spanning 1.2 kilometers.
*The airport will accommodate 13 million passengers a year, with the possibility to expand for 50 million passengers
