The Xiamen Airlines campus comprises three large buildings: the corporate headquarters, a business hotel, and a commercial center. To unify the site, the landscape spans across the campus as it transitions to express the distinct character of the various programs and patronage. Lush perimeter terraces adorn the stately Foster + Partners-designed buildings, mediating the significant grade change across the site. Beyond the building cohort, the site opens into a grand arrival space, which serves the hotel and headquarters entrances, and a large central courtyard. While each space is unique in scale and function, they collectively reflect the surrounding island context through dramatic water features, native trees and planting, and stonework inspired by the local Wu Yi Mountains.
