In 2014, Doha International Airport saw its terminal building expand twelve times larger to accommodate aircraft such as Airbus A380s.

Built on land reclaimed from the sea, the building evokes coastal architecture with a rooftop that features wavelike waves of rippled peaks and troughs, while an adjacent mosque appears as an immense blue droplet of water.

Artworks line the interior walls, adding color and vibrancy to an otherwise metallic and stark terminal building. One such iconic work by Swiss artist Urs Fischer - his Lamp Bear is hard to miss!
