Information About
This publication provides a unique perspective of Changi airport's coming-of-age story spanning nearly three decades. The author narrates how the airport's architecture and design development take it to become the world’s best-loved airport and reveals the many issues that factor in the making of an aviation hub of excellence. The book also attempts to provide an understanding of how design facilitates the Changi experience and how the role of design has changed since the Changi master plan was conceived in the mid-1970s.
