Review:
Synopsis:
This text covers the functional planning of facilities for aircraft and people and the architectural forms that accommodate them. The book is a discourse rather than a design guide and is illustrated from the author's experience. It provides a review of airport design principles as they affect the design of terminal buildings and this is supported by examples from London's Gatwick original 1934 "beehive" terminal and Hub terminals, created for airlines to cater for passengers transferring between their flights. It discusses the organic nature of modern technologically-derived buildings, with a taxonomy of recent airport terminals of seven principle forms, showing these forms are each responsive to the scale of the relevant operation and the demands of aircraft movement and circulation.
