Arrival at Delhi Noida International Airport in India, designed by winning consortium consisting of Nordic – Office of Architecture, Grimshaw, Haptic and STUP
Grimshaw has said it has no intention of pulling out of Architects Declare – or stopping aviation work – after it was named part of the winning team for a new airport in India.
The practice – along with fellow Brit Haptic, Norway’s Nordic Office of Architecture and Indian engineer and planning consultant Stup – beat two other shortlisted teams: Gensler with Arup and SOM with Mott MacDonald.
The announcement, from the owners of Delhi Noida International Airport, comes in the month that Norman Foster pulled his practice out of Architects Declare accusing the organisers of lacking perspective and arguing that aviation “will need the most sustainable buildings … together with the architects who can most responsibly design them”.
