Haptic, Grimshaw, Nordic Office of Architecture and Arup released (10-Apr-2014) images of the terminal complex at the 8000ha Istanbul Grand Airport masterplan and terminals in Turkey. Appointed by the Turkish consortium of Cengiz, Kolin, Limak, MAPA and Kalyon, the plans have been created following an intensive design period. Located on the Black Sea coast, some 35km out­side of Is­tan­bul, the am­bi­tious six-run­way de­vel­op­ment will be de­liv­ered in four phases. The first phase will open in 2019 and aims to serve 90 mil­lion pas­sen­gers p/a. This will in­crease to over 150 mil­lion pas­sen­gers p/a when the last phase is com­pleted. The new Is­tan­bul Air­port will be the world’s largest air­port ter­mi­nal, with a gross floor area close to one mil­lion square me­tres for the first ter­mi­nal.
