Denver International Airport, United States
Denver International Airport, United States
In the United States - if not the world - Spanish Architect Santiago Calatrava is the go-to guy when it comes to designing transportation facilities. Having established a reputation as a formidable designer of bridges, Calatrava moved on to design a collection of world-class cultural facilities and other instantly recognisable structures such as the Chicago Spire and the Ground Zero Transportation hub, earning him a fair share of fans and critics. So naturally, when the news broke that his design for a major expansion of the 5th busiest airport in the United States was to be unveiled today, journalists and critics were poised at the front lines to report on this momentous occasion; bets were hedged as to whether the design would rise to the level of an icon, like many Calatrava-designed structures, or fall deep into a hole of nothingness like the ill-fated Chicago Spire, which no amount of cost cutting strategies could rescue.
