El Prat Airport

About the project

Terminal 1 of El Prat Airport was designed by Barcelona architect Ricardo Bofill to be a sustainable terminal, keeping in mind the new needs in which energy consumption must be reduced as much as possible.

Unlike the existing terminals, this new building has light as one of its hallmarks. The use of daylight through walls of serigraphed glass allows its public spaces to be lit solely with a soft light, helping to save energy.
