9. Oslo Airport Expansion
GARDERMOEN, NORWAY
The local firm Nordic Office of Architecture designed the original
Oslo Airport, which opened in 1998. Nearly two decades later, the
firm returned to address rising passenger traffic by reconstructing
portions of the existing building, extending the departure and
arrivals hall, and adding a new northern pier perpendicular to
the original terminal. The additions doubled the existing facility's
capacity without increasing walking distances for passengers.
Like its predecessor, the new pier is supported by a glulam
structure and concrete columns, but it has a curving form in
contrast to the rest of the terminal. The oak timber cladding from
Scandinavian forests, vegetated green walls, and water features
extend the nature imagery. High levels of insulation and a tight
building envelope conserve energy, along with groundwater
energy conservation and heat recovery in the mechanical and
ventilation systems. Wintertime snow is gathered and preserved
in an attached storage structure for use in cooling during the
summer. The expansion opened in 2017.
10. Salt Lake City International Airport Passenger Terminal
SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH
Art evoking the Utah landscape plays an integral role in Salt Lake
City International Airport's new passenger terminal, which replaces
outdated midcentury terminals and concourses. The airport
brought in artist Gordon Huether, based in Napa, California, to
work closely with the architecture firm, the San Francisco office of
HOK, to incorporate his art into the design of a new central terminal
building and portions of two concourses. The largest installation,
The Canyon, runs along the east and west walls of the new
terminal, referencing Utah's slot canyons with wavy tensile membrane
fins. A seven-story-high dichroic glass sculpture, The Falls,
greets arriving visitors. Even the restrooms feature art.
Throughout, finishes in
earth tones like sage and
copper recall the western
landscape. Floor-to-ceiling
glass walls provide views of
the nearby Wasatch Mountains
and bring in daylight.
The linear concourse design
also lets planes move to and
from gates more efficiently
and swiftly. The first phase
was completed in 2020. A
second phase will involve
demolishing and replacing
more structures, ultimately
tripling the original airport's
passenger capacity to more
than 30 million passengers
per year. UL
