Royal Reception Pavilion- King Abdulaziz Int'l Airport
|
This project is a completely self-contained terminal for the exclusive use of the King of Saudi Arabia, other members of the Royal family, and their personal guests, including visiting heads of state. The facility and its large parade grounds are designed to handle state functions and ceremonies. The building is divided into three interconnected zones. A reception hall characterized by a high tent-shaped ceiling, which is clad on the exterior with a copper roof, occupies the center zone. It separates the Administration, Press and VIP Women’s Areas to the North, from the Royal Suite, lounges and VIP Men’s areas to the South. All zones are accessible from the service level which extends under the entire building.
