To make up for the lack of daylight in the space, the design team created virtual skylights within the black box; their gentle illumination, powered by LEDs, mimics the sky, corresponding to the time of day. The space includes a retail component, as well as a place to relax.
A long black-granite "box" appears as if it has been dropped
into the center of the lounge. This anchoring structure houses the bulk
of the lounge's programming.
Gensler drew on classic train station flip screens for an LCD wall that cycles through a series of slides displaying guest name, flight info and status, and boarding time and gate—all captured at concierge check-in. Ball chairs provide semi-private enclaves for guests.
