Dear Anna Afanasieva

To begin with, I would like to thank the INSPIRELI AWARD structure for the honor you accord me to my person providing an analysis (comment) on the draft Anna Afanasieva _ Airport terminal in Gostomel.
Thank you very much for participating in the INSPIRELI EDUCATION International Student Competition. We very appreciate your time and effort to produce this excellent design work.
The airport is of great importance as it is the first impression that the traveler takes about the city from him knows its history of culture up to its identity, the airport has great importance where symbolism plays a big role in determining the image of the traveler about the city.
The development in air traffic and travel has increased and for these reasons, the interest in the design process of airports has become very complex because it depends on the movement of passengers and equipment must be taken into account aesthetics and symbolism, in order to create a relationship between the building and its users.
Architectural criticism:
The direction of the biggest face of the site to the vacuum is not suitable aesthetically, but that trend is considered better for several other factors, the most important of which is the regularity of the site in that direction, which gives freedom of design and movement for a better view, but also the site in that side is considered random and irregular, which limits the ability to design and move and try to reach a certain balance in overlapping the steel and transparent part with the aim of reaching aesthetic ratios (but in my opinion did not reach those ratios and did not achieve an aspect Aesthetics, but it reaches a solid and un expressive mass.
In the end you come up with a design that expresses the function of the building once you look at the building you can know that this building is for the airport and that it is the Antonov building in Justumil- Ukraine or symbolizes it.

Best Regards.
