BANGALORE INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT
The first thing one notice inside the Bangalore airport is the massive roof. Inclined curved precast concrete slabs spanning massive spaces. I must say the overall effect is interesting. They are basically another derivation of the northlight trusses. Here the light coming in washes the curved profile of the slabs creating interesting shadows and profiles.

The entire space composed of a neutral colour palette - greys, blacks and white, stunningly contrasted with turquoise green glass cladding, which brings in the much needed life into the space.
