Simple. The completed building should be easy to navigate, well-connected by both public and private transport, and straightforward to maintain and operate.

Flexible. Airports must adapt to the fast-paced aviation industry. They should be easily expandable, responsive to changing trends, and designed with ample revenue-generating spaces.

Comfortable. A stress-free experience is key for both travelers and airport staff. This means ensuring ample space, natural light, and a design that reflects the local culture and identity.

Nordic’s journey in airport design began with the international architectural competition for Oslo Airport, won as part of Aviaplan in 1990. From the opening in 1998 and through multiple expansions—including the one that earned Oslo Airport the title of “the greenest airport in the world”—Nordic has been at the forefront of its evolution. As the sole architect for detailed design, team management, BIM management, and site supervision, Nordic developed the architectural concept for the terminal expansion while also overseeing lighting, landscape design, and project administration.

Nordic’s portfolio includes key Norwegian projects such as Bergen Airport’s new terminal, expansions at Trondheim and Tromsø Airports, the new Mo i Rana Airport, and master plans for Stavanger and Bodø Airports.

Internationally, projects include Istanbul Airport (Turkey), Delhi Noida and Rajiv Gandhi (India), Stockholm Arlanda (Sweden), Chongqing Jiangbei (China), Keflavik (Iceland) and many more.
