I think we have been very deliberate about designing the terminal (by) picking up elements of the rich architectural heritage of the region… An airport that is very much at home in north India, in Western UP. The commercial space will feature a large open-air courtyard reminiscent of some of the ‘havelis’ (traditional houses) found in the region,” said Schnellmann.
