more commentsAll the works of calatrava were gorgeous.I really love it.looks pretty good.
Looks good. Build it.
The rendered images don’t do a great deal for the project (taken from what you would call a fat angle) but that last shot of the model shows a bit more of calatrava’s signature–his organic armature.
Now it’s kind of growing on me. I hope the covered civic plaza will be warm enough during the winter. This is Colorado, after all.
the existing denver airport looks like many pairs of stretched briefs put together!! this building looks a million times better!
¿¿Calatravada???
Looks like whale baleen. From a strictly design viewpoint, I think it’s kind of blocky/clunky and will date fast.
oh my god…I’m just a student of Architecture and I will dare saying that this NOT cool AT ALL !! It’s like if they wanted to make sth really big to impress and nothing more…
Another reason why I love Caltrava… Hopefully the flow inside the building is smooth…
denver is a HORRIBLE airport, customes is confusing and demeaning!
