Kohn Pedersen Fox and Heatherwick Studio Selected for Design of Singapore Changi Airport Terminal 5

Kohn Pedersen Fox (KPF) and Heatherwick Studio are pleased to announce their selection by Changi Airport Group, the manager and operator of Singapore Changi Airport, as the design leaders of the airport’s new Terminal 5.

The collaboration brings together two award-winning and internationally recognized practices with extensive experience designing innovative urban spaces and specialized infrastructure projects.

Working as design partners, KPF and Heatherwick Studio, with Architects 61 will be joined by a team of design consultants, including James Corner Field Operations, The Fountain Workshop, Speirs + Major, Lichtvision Design, and Bruce Mau Design with Entro. Arup, Motts McDonald, and Surbana Jurong will serve as leaders of the engineering team.

Changi Airport Terminal 5 will add an initial capacity of up to 50 million passengers per year to what is already one of the busiest and most celebrated international airports in the world. The magnitude of the project not only requires a design vision on a city-like scale, but also offers the opportunity to transform conventional thinking in airport design.

For KPF, the project is the natural progression of a 40-year history of delivering infrastructure and urban projects of international significance. The firm’s airport experience includes major terminals across the world, such as the nearly completed Midfield Terminal Complex at the Abu Dhabi International Airport. The commission of Changi Airport Terminal 5 cements KPF as one of the global design leaders of the largest, most complex international airport terminals. KPF’s success in the execution of projects of immense scale proceeds from the firm’s intention to make contributions to the built environment that go beyond their physical footprint. The firm has gleaned its deep understanding of culture and community through the design of vibrant, mixed-use neighborhoods and urban centers including Roppongi Hills in Tokyo, Hudson Yards in New York City, and Victoria Dockside in Hong Kong.

Changi Airport Terminal 5 is a hugely significant addition to Heatherwick Studio’s diverse international portfolio. Since it was founded in 1994 the studio has created places focused on human experience. Terminal 5’s vast scale and international importance presents one of the studio’s greatest opportunities for this approach.

The combination of KPF’s experience in both large-scale infrastructure and urban neighborhoods, paired with the innovative design expertise of Heatherwick Studio, will create an airport that will go beyond mere transportation requirements and become a city within itself - an integral piece of Singapore.

James von Klemperer

President, KPF

“KPF and Heatherwick Studio, together with Architects 61, are excited to announce our collaboration for the design of the world’s most significant aviation project. As a global leader in designing buildings of major scale and significance, we welcome this opportunity to advance the airport typology.  We’re proud to be working with Changi Airport Group to deliver a terminal that will redefine the way we experience air travel, and provide a new, dynamic gateway to Singapore.”

Forth Bagley and Dominic Dunn

Managing Principals, KPF

“In addition to our collaboration with Heatherwick Studio, we are thrilled to be joined by a multi-disciplinary team of world-class global innovators, aviation experts, and specialists including James Corner Field Operations, and Speirs and Major. In turn, Singapore-based expertise is a major emphasis of this team’s make-up. Our partner, Architects 61 of Singapore, will lead a talented group of architects with a proven track record of delivering some of Asia's most impactful infrastructure projects.”

 Trent Tesch

Design Principal, KPF

“I look forward to collaborating with Thomas and his colleagues at Heatherwick Studio on the design of Changi Airport Terminal 5. In this unprecedented collaboration between KPF and Heatherwick Studio, we will bring unparalleled creativity to a new era of airport design. My challenge will be to bring out the best of our world-class design team and create a landmark for Singapore that elevates the urban travel experience and the profile of Singapore itself.”

Thomas Heatherwick

Founder of Heatherwick Studio

“It’s thrilling to be chosen to lead the design of the next phase of the world’s most successful airport, collaborating with KPF to nearly double the size of Changi. This is an extraordinary opportunity to break away from the sterility and soullessness we’ve come to expect from typical airport environments. We’re excited to treat this next phase of Changi as a new piece of city and bring together the rigor of airport planning with an uncompromising interest in the quality of human experience for passengers.”

 Stuart Wood

Group Leader, Heatherwick Studio

“Winning the global competition with KPF to design Changi Airport Terminal 5 sets us the most challenging opportunity Heatherwick Studio has ever undertaken. The scale and ambition of this project is unprecedented. We are delighted to have the opportunity to make a memorable new terminal for Changi that inspires at every scale from mega infrastructure, aviation, transit, retail, leisure and culture through to the tiniest detail. Our hope is to make Terminal 5 the most homely and, at the same time, most spectacular airport in the world for many years to come.”
