LESSONS IN FABRICATIONVaulted Terminal | Fall 2013 | Critic: Mara Marcu
This terminal is an extension to the Henri Coanda Airport in Bucharest, Romania. The shape of the airport originates from the Romanian egg patterns taking into a program called Catia. The cell takes the form of vaults that get modulated forming the shape of the terminal.
This is a collection of models created during the four years at the University of Virginia. Varied in materials and concepts, these models provide a new perspective to the design.
