As part of a £4 bn investment to reinvigorate Heathrow Airport, the International Departures Lounge at Heathrow Terminal 3 has undergone a redesign and refurbishment. As the UK’s only international hub airport, Heathrow is continually upgrading and improving to offer passengers world-class facilities in a comfortable and inviting environment.
Terminal 3’s redevelopment will enable a further 17,000 passengers to travel through the building each day, meaning the departures lounge needed to be reconfigured and expanded to accommodate these growing numbers.
A key part of creating the right ambience was the lighting. The scheme was created by Studio Fractal. To provide a great atmosphere a range of LED Linear™ luminaires like the VENUS family and HYDRA were installed to offer clean lines of light in the ceiling.
