Evaluation comments from the Good Design Award jury
The designers were really thorough in a lot of different areas, including the use of space, materials,
signage and furniture, to create an airport space for LCCs at a low cost. Terminal 3 is an airport
space that has a totally new value about it. As a result, Terminal 3's merits are so new that they
overturn the conventional wisdom of airport terminal design. These include its ease of finding theway, ease to walk through, user-friendliness, quietness and enjoyment. These merits arepresented in a form that is easy to understand.
