BIG PICTURE The Philippines’ second largest airport is possibly the first in Southeast Asia to use engineered wood for its new terminal building. Blessed with warm sunshine and peanut buery beaches, it is no wonder Cebu receives so many visitors a year. Airport authories expect passenger arrivals to hit 10 million by the end of 2017, a 12 per cent jump from 2016. To cope with increasing air trac, the Filipino city is upgrading the exisng terminal and building a second one, making it the second largest airport in the country. The most impressive feature of the new terminal is the dramac roof structure made of glue-laminated mber beams. The arches span every 30 metres, which enables Terminal 2 to be as columnfree as possible. The internal spaces are enclosed by a light and transparent glazed façade. The arch façade is 15 metres tall and is accentuated by vercal U channels. With sleek, elegant curves, the undulang roof is reminiscent of the waves of the seas around Mactan Cebu Island. Construcon is already in full swing and expected to complete in June 2018. The new terminal, spanning 65,500sqm, will increase passenger capacity to 12.5 million. Hong Kong-based Integrated Design Associates (IDA) forms part of MCIA Terminal 2’s design team. It is also working in tandem with Budji Layug, Royal Pineda and Kenneth Cobunpue on the design and look-and-feel of the new terminal. Envisioned with a unique design that demonstrates the warmth and friendliness of the local culture, the project is set to transform the local airport into a world-class facility with a welcoming ambience that is disnctly Filipino.
