those for earthquake resistance, accessibility, fire safety, and energy efficiency.
The terminal incorporates sustainable design principles and complies with numerous
architectural norms and standards, making it an example of a responsible and progressive
approach to architecture and design. This implies that in addition to following local laws
and ordinances, the designers were mindful of the necessity to provide a secure and friendly
environment for travelers and guests.

visitors and travelers a comfortable and welcoming space. Features like the use of natural
materials, the presence of common areas, and the availability of amenities like elevators and
