The design of the TPS was based on the conception of a great longitudinal axis to concentrate the technical areas and vertical circulation, distributing the different functions around continuous and transparent spaces. A mixed structure of steel and concrete was proposed to allow great flexibility in the program, allowing adjustments along the time without interfering in the airport dynamics. The canopy design was specially designed to avoid specific reflections of sunlight towards the airplanes, and becomes a surprise element for the airplane passengers who view it from above – the fifth facade, essential for an airport.
