01 Architect
Foster + Partners is a British international studio for architecture and integrated design.
Many projects combine Arts and Crafts building and industrial machines and are used to use glass and steel building. To bring people back to that, with the wind, and the sun, the air, water, and all things in harmony era by high-tech architecture.

02 Concept
An airport of the future In American Southwest, because of dried hot air from Mexico what is a typical desert climate. The wind and solar energy sources are here, so the reason can be selected in the wind and sun to do sustainable development.
In order to avoid hot air from Mexico, how to make the introduction of wind in the building is the first consideration, because of wind direction and the space of the essential air handling system, the vents are put up at the opposite side with the runway.

03 Building
It has two storeys and a high ceiling inside, and the shell is curved along the surface and rises up.

03 Building
when people walk into the building via a deep channel cut into the landscape like that they dip in the desert, forming an exhibition space implied some kind of meaning. The western boundary of the building is a glazed wall, and its performance space is a visitor's gallery and astronaut's quarters.

03 Building
The eastern side is administrative facilities with a glazed faรง ade reserved where has a good view onto the rails.

03 Building
the concept forms an internal space, coordinating the idea that client decides to build the airport, for capturing the drama and mystery of space flight itself, and makes a minimal impact on the environment.

04 Connection, Strategy
A local green architecture It uses local materials and regional construction techniques for reducing the
cost of shipping cost and complying with the local climate and environment. The design of the skin is very important for regulating the external environment and interface features indoor climate differences. The top is composed of the big shell a reinforced structure, reducing the burden on the quality of structural column, and it can obscure the strong sunlight. The choice of exterior colors is similar to the desired color, being harmonious. It uses thermal energy cycles of comfortably temperature.

04 Connection, Strategy
Construction system Temperature : Desert air conditioner - Achieving water evaporation air handling multiple processes. the water evaporation in the cooling air conditioner consumes very little energy, and reduces cooling power dust and increases humidity in the wintertime.

04 Connection, Strategy
Construction system Air conditioning : Due to the plane of the heat, the indoor airport causes the temperature rising up. After indoor temperature is to be hot, hot air will rise and be discharged. In addition, there is a slender space to release hot air from the base ground. It will achieve the minimum impact from the outside temperature.

04 Connection, Strategy
Construction system Sunlight : Because of this strong sunlight, at the top of many small windows which shape are broken up by three-dimensional curved, make it to be the soft light before entering the room. So as to control the amount of sunshine into the room, reducing and keeping indoor temperature, even the top of middle has placed solar panels, creating a cycle energy source. Especially, at the building bottom provides radiant cooling a meeting at underfloor to solve the problem for the temperature of the stratum and the floor.

04 Connection, Strategy
Construction system On the other hand, it will be able to reduce carbon emissions and hopes to reach a minimum intervention in the surrounding environment.

05 Conclusion
The world's first private spaceport
The low-lying can buffer uncomfortable, and let a good introduction of the west wind. The project is not only a tourist airport, but also as a space open to public use. No matter what architecture and sustainable using, they are both closely integrated, showing elegance and practicality. It gets Wallpaper Design Awards, Best Building Sites.
