Passenger Terminal Today

Singapore’s Changi Airport describes its recently revamped Terminal 2 (T2) as a place “where nature meets modernity”. The terminal expansion spans three levels, including the arrival and departure halls, and Level 3, where new food and beverage options are available.
Basile Boiffils, managing director and principal architect at Boiffils Architectures, the interior design lead for the project, notes that the brief was relatively simple: “To expand the capacity, but while doing so, to completely refresh the terminal’s atmosphere.”
Work began in January 2020, just two months before Singapore closed its borders because of the Covid-19 pandemic, and was completed in November 2023. Terminal 2 has since been nominated for numerous awards and attracted the attention of some of the world’s leading architectural publications.
