Sustainability
Collaborating with the Winnipeg Airport Authority, the roof system accommodates the ceiling heights so it does not disrupt airline travel. Large glazing allows for natural daylight and visitors to view the aircraft from outside.
The project involved extensive research, communication and project management to accommodate community gathering spaces designed to allow for social distancing measures currently in place.
