Airport TARANIS France, Notre-Dame des Landes

Concept

A STRONG LANDSCAPE INTEGRATION

The terminal blends harmoniously with the natural topography, its compact massing preserving visual breakthroughs. Mainly on one level, it highlights the slope of the site and, like a deployed airplane wing, seems to be placed on the forecourt. Its corrugated roof gives the illusion of a building emerging from the ground.

The forecourt, mineral and vegetable, constitutes a functional and unifying pole, facilitating gentle access and the tram-train located in the South. The interior spaces, bright and modular thanks to transparent and flexible walls, express constructive clarity and the “truth of materials”.

Vegetation is integrated as a dynamic and identity component of the project. The artificial light, incorporated into the structure, creates, at night, a visible halo from the entrance of the site.
