Airports around the world have the simplest possible layout, while could invest more to upgrade travel experience operating as Art Galleries.
Airports, as hubs of activity, connect people and places around the world. As an intermediate stop on a journey they dominate human consciousness while being identified with an amalgam of mixed emotions. Farewells, welcomes, nerves, stress, sadness, excitement… For some, it’s just a pick-up point but for many, it serves as a second home.
Traveling by plane is one of the most popular and fastest ways of transportation, especially when you wish to be at your dream destination while enjoying a relaxing on-air travel experience to the fullest.
Airports, ensuring a peaceful stay for travelers in their spaces, could upgrade their overall aesthetic image by operating like Art Galleries with the assistance of GEN AI (Generative Artificial Intelligence). An open window into a futuristic world with artworks, on many levels, bathed in light, connecting art with life and creating both surprising and exciting images.
By highlighting the artistic side of airports, travelers are encouraged to communicate more, to express themselves, to take a break from the routine of everyday life and their professional obligations by living the magic of the moment surrounded by unpretentious beauty that they would not have the opportunity to experience in other conventional waiting areas.
The images below, created using artificial intelligence, summarize this dynamic, where airports can focus on creating welcoming spaces, transcending the trivial and adopting a lighthearted, almost playful, more outgoing and communicative style.
