Pascall+Watson appointed to design new arrivals terminal at Stansted Airport
Pascall+Watson have been appointed by the owners of Stansted Airport, Manchester Airports Group, to the next two phases of the airport’s £600m Transformation Programme, including the design of the new £130m arrivals terminal for which the firm developed the concept design, and the redevelopment of the existing terminal. The scope of the project includes the
development and delivery of the concept design for the 34,000 m2
arrivals terminal,
which relocates all arrivals functions to a separate “state-of-the art” facility. The bespoke design by Pascall+Watson
complements the architecture of the existing building, which will be reconfigured into a dedicated departure only terminal. This will include the expansion of the check-in, security and retail areas, along with a new ‘airside’ coaching facility, aircraft stands, taxiway infrastructure and car parking facilities.
ADF MAY 2018 The design for the new arrivals terminal
will provide a “high quality passenger environment” with an “enhanced” immigration and baggage reclaim area, spacious arrivals concourse and a welcoming public forecourt. The concept for the arrivals terminal
focuses on a modular sky-lit roof floating above generous double height spaces. The soffit design reflects the “single directional nature of the facility,” said the architects, which combined with the building’s functional planning, provides “an intuitive passenger journey”. Pascall+Watson added that its
contribution to the Stansted Transformation Programme “supports the airport’s future growth and will transform the travelling experience for millions of people passing through the airport”. Pascall+Watson have been involved in
Stansted’s evolution for almost 30 years. They have completed numerous schemes
of varying scale and complexity with services ranging from masterplanning, airport planning, concept, detail and production design, wayfinding and construction support. Paul Willis, programme delivery director
for the Stansted Transformation Programme, said: “Pascall+Watson have already played a key role in the Stansted Transformation Programme, so we’re delighted to announce they have been appointed to develop the design for phases two and three.” Willis added: “Over the next five years,
we’re investing £600m at Stansted, which will see the biggest upgrade in passenger facilities at the airport since the iconic Sir Norman Foster terminal opened in 1991. This investment will transform the experience for millions of passengers and help unlock Stansted’s spare runway capacity, providing passengers with a wider choice of airlines and destinations.”
