Chicago's O'Hare Global Terminal, led by Foster + Partners, Epstein and Moreno
Foster Epstein Moreno, has created a dynamic and iconic design for O’Hare’s new Global Terminal, aiming to recapture the romance associated with air travel while reflecting the city’s cultural diversity. The team has partnered with local design and engineering talent such as the Rebuild Foundation, a Chicago-based organization that directly engages in the production of innovative arts, crafts and trades programs, founded and led by artist Theaster Gates, to work on this incredible project. With a team that is grounded in the city and backed by global expertise, we understand that Chicago is a world player, but one that doesn’t forget about its backyard.

"A theatre of aviation" I like that!
Foster gives me goosebumps. His designs are truly spiritual in their design.
Probably the best promo video of an airport makeover I will ever see in my life.
Than you for posting... as a Chicagoan I am so sad it was not awarded the project. I guess the Americans are not brave yet to embrace such futuristic airport vision

For a long time now Chicago architecture has been surprisingly insular and disinterested in ideas for architecture from somewhere else in the world especially when those ideas are so clearly superior to anything that might be produced in Chicago. It's irksome for Chicago architects who wield considerable influence in their hometown, but nowhere else. Too many high-profile projects in Chicago have been done by architects from elsewhere in the world. They didn't want to give Foster the win on this one, I suspect.

That’s too big of an expanse for a roof without defined supports. A heavy snowfall will bring that roof down flat! Or at least bend the ceiling enough that those giant panes of glass will shatter.

I think we can assume they anticipated all of that and more.
