Bergen Airport, Norway
In 2017 Bergen Airport was upgraded with a new passenger terminal building, increasing capacity to serve 7.5 million passengers per year. A bright double height space connects the arrival- and departure halls. The arrival hall is characterised by the hanging veil of the structural glass facade and the grand steel trusses of the support structure. The minimalistic glass facade allows views of the entire depth of the terminal for the traveller upon entering the building. The airport upgrade was designed by Nordic Office of Architecture, with Newtecnic providing facade engineering design of the structural glass facade.
