Airport terminal in Madrid by Richard Rogers

On February 4, 2006, the Terminal 4 building was officially opened at Madrid's Barajas Airport with the participation of Spanish Prime Minister J.L.R. Zapatero. The author of the building - Lord Richard Rogers - won with his project in an international competition nine years prior. Since then, 6 billion Euros have been invested in the northeast of Madrid to ultimately create the largest building in Europe with 1,200,000 square meters of space. At first glance, the wavy structure of the roof with a bamboo ceiling captures the attention of everyone. Other equally important parts are the energy aspect of the project and the modern way of organizing the operation of the entire building, which will be able to handle 65 million passengers annually.
