Melbourne Airport, international arrivals

In 2006, with the advent of the new Airbus A380 and the accompanying increase in passenger traffic, Australia Pacific Airports were obliged to expand the baggage handling system at Melbourne airport.

The arrivals terminal was duly upgraded, with changes affecting the reception area and baggage reclaim hall.

The architectural design of the enlargement project was entrusted to DesignInc, whose consultants selected an indirect lighting solution for the new hall, using Greenwich fixtures with 250W metal halide lamps trained upwards onto circular diffusers of large diameter.
