sort of slatted, triangular ceiling
pattern to filter the light into the
space, " Husser said. " Then, the way
that the diamond-shaped skylights,
actually when you have direct light,
is cast onto the floor you see sort of
chevron-type patterns, and so that
became the inspiration for the floor
pattern with the terrazzo inlays. "
The seating throughout the terminal
was thoughtfully selected for
both the comfort of travelers but also
to reflect New Jersey. One example
is the installation of boardwalk-style
lounge chairs selected by the Munich
Airport Group.
" The boardwalk concept really
Airport's

EWR worked with Tutor Perini,
the design-build contractor, Grimshaw,
the architectural designer, and
STV, the engineer of record, to create
a terminal that represents New Jersey.
A Very Jersey Terminal
The first thing travelers will notice
walking into the terminal is the slotted
ceiling design and matching floor
pattern. Grimshaw Lead Architect
Mark Husser said the purpose of the
unique ceiling design was to let in as
much natural light as possible.
" We developed a ceiling concept
that filters the light. So, there are
diamond-shaped skylights on the
upper roof and then we use this
came from this idea of the sort of
Jersey Shore and the boardwalk and
people, " Husser said. " In the airport,
you get everything from business
travelers, they were very familiar
and move right through the airport
terminal to families or elderly people
or people with reduced mobility. So,
hold rooms have really evolved from
being the typical kind of beam seating,
bench-type seating to having a
lot more diversity for the different
traveling passenger types. And so
that was an idea that again was sort
of inspired by a bit of New Jersey. "
The terminal features many
nature-inspired elements including
table/charging stations designed to
look like cherry blossom trees, several
plants throughout the facility
and four different themed (Coast -
blue, Woodland - green, Communities
- red, Metro - yellow) restrooms
that also pay tribute to New Jersey
and nature.
" The idea is that wherever you are
in the terminal, you will have a different
experience in the restrooms,
and that if you travel frequently
through the terminal, there's still
a fair amount of variety of experience, "
Husser said. " They also go
along with different color themes,
there's a color theme that's associated
with each of those of those experience
themes. "
