Hong Kong International Airport - Norman Foster


Hong Kong International Airport, designed by the Foster & Partners, or better known as perhaps Norman Foster, is still voted as the best airport in the world by a number of differnt media, magazines. definitely won't argue with that.

it's spacious volume, lack of any annoying direct lights, together with the well coordinated ventilation system, really prepare the traveller for whatever trip you are about to embark on. perhaps only occasionally marred by the oddly placed signages, promotional artefacts, or those hideous looking planter boxes.

such a huge space without the use of conspicous direct downlight, this is trully a job well done.

in contrast, however, the toilets really sucks...
