The Sense of Place project at Cyprus’ Airports

The new terminals of Pafos and Larnaka International Airports were inaugurated in 2008 and 2009, respectively. Upon handover, the company which assumed the design and construction of the two airports, along with representatives from the shareholders of the Hermes consortium, had introduced the concept “Sense of Place”. The principal objective was for the airports to express and promote the rich cultural identity of the island through a modern interpretation that would be reflected in artwork created by local artists.
