The Bangalore International Airport T2 has been called a "terminal in a garden".

Designed to reflect Bengaluru's rich culture, history and its reputation as the garden city. It is also a sustainable building by design, with a LEEDS platinum certification. Naturally, the brief we had completely aligned with Oorjaa's ethos and core values of environment and traditional craft. The scale of the space also gave us a perfect platform to highlight one of the biggest threats to natural reserves of South India - the invasive weed Lantana camara.

As you arrive, traditional bell-inspired lights with intricate Kasuti motifs of Dharwad, welcome the traveller.. These lights celebrate Karnataka's rich heritage, drawing inspiration from the region's traditional embroidery and metalwork, seamlessly blending local craftsmanship with modern design.
