As well as offices for the flight companies this hangar doubles as the departures and arrivals building at a private airport, so both appearance and functionality were absolutely key.
To give the extra edge on appearance this project has silicone glazed curtain walling so no external aluminium caps are used – giving a cleaner, more modern and stylish look.
In both the hangar doors and the standard walls are long runs of ribbon windows. On the ground floor there are several commercial glazed doors, serving as both entrances and fire exits.
This landmark building also features some smaller high level windows where switch-operated electric actuators are used for smoothly opening and closure.
