Dublin T2, Second terminal for Dublin Airport in Ireland

December 09, 2010 Category: Airports, Urban Design

Designed by Pascall + Watson, Dublin T2, Second terminal for Dublin Airport is located in Ireland. Dublin Airport’s new second terminal is now up and running, courtesy of architecture practice Pascall+Watson, prime consultant Arup and design engineers Mace. It may be early days for the sleek new building, but it has already scooped a Structural Steel Design Award earlier this year.

Spread over 75,000 sq m, the sprawling terminal building uses around two thirds less energy than other terminals of equal size and demand, and is capable of handling 15million passengers each year. Ireland has hit the headlines recently with crippling monetary issues and attempts to secure a £72bn international bailout.
