Background

Construction of the 24,000 square meter SkyCourt began in 2009 and was completed in 2011, with a budget of approximately 100 million euros (31 billion HUF). The building features an innovative design with a nearly 70-meter steel roof span and large glass surfaces that flood the interior with natural light, offering passengers stunning views of the airport's operations. This landmark project was part of Budapest Airport's comprehensive modernization plan and has received multiple prestigious awards, including the Tierney Clark Prize, European Steel Award, and Construction Industry Award

What We Did

Our team at Vision Graphics created detailed interior renderings of the SkyCourt for marketing purposes before construction was completed. We visualized the spacious two-story passenger area with its shell-shaped design, showcasing how the terminal would connect the existing buildings while providing a comfortable environment for travelers. Our renderings highlighted the planned retail spaces, restaurants, waiting areas, and how natural light would interact with the innovative architectural elements, helping stakeholders envision this ambitious project that would become the symbol of the new terminal complex
