ZENBER Architects and IAA Architects win tender for Redevelopment Lounge 1 Schiphol
Redevelopment of Schiphol Lounge 1
Schiphol has the ambition to be 'Europe's Preferred Airport'
To achieve this, Royal Schiphol Group is not only working on its daily operations, but also on creating more capacity and improving quality in the future. In this context, the existing Lounge 1 will be renovated, renewed and expanded. More space is being created for a smoother flow, better service and extra facilities.
ZENBER Architects and IAA Architects have won the interior architecture contract for the redevelopment of Lounge 1 Schiphol in competition.
The number of passengers travelling via Schiphol is increasing every year. Schiphol wants to absorb this continued growth properly and sustainably. With the redevelopment of Lounge 1, Schiphol wants to increase capacity and quality within the contours of the current complex. The Lounge 1 project area has a total size of approximately 12,500 m2. The redevelopment focuses on the wishes and experience of the passenger and the human dimension plays an important role. Passengers should feel comfortable from the moment they enter Schiphol Airport to departure from the gate. The Lounge should also offer a surprising experience that inspires and challenges you to discover so that Schiphol stands out from other airports.
It was up to ZENBER and IAA to design this renewed inspiring Lounge. A special assignment and a great challenge!
