Leading planning, design, and architectural firm CWPA Planning & Architecture is pleased to announce that it has been selected by prominent aviation entrepreneurs Ulick & Des McEvaddy to lead the design and planning for Terminal 3 at Dublin Airport.
The McEvaddys, owners of Omega Air, a company specialising in the sale and lease of aircraft, are well-known figures in the aviation sector. They have entrusted CWPA with the crucial task of shaping the vision and functionality of the upcoming Terminal 3. With a rich history of successful projects and a reputation for innovative design solutions, CWPA is poised to apply its expertise to enhance both the passenger experience and operational efficiency at Dublin Airport.
Commenting on the prestigious T3 project, Joe Corr, Managing Director of Planning at CWPA, expressed his enthusiasm for the collaboration: “We are honoured to have been selected by Ulick & Des McEvaddy for this significant project at Dublin Airport. Our team is committed to delivering a world-class design that aligns with the airport’s vision and master planning, meeting the evolving and sustainable needs of the aviation industry.”
Fran Whelan, Managing Director of Architecture at CWPA, echoed this sentiment: “The opportunity to contribute to the design of Terminal 3 is a testament to our firm’s capabilities and commitment to excellence. We look forward to creating a space that not only meets the functional requirements of a modern airport but also integrates aesthetic elements that make it a landmark in architectural design.”
Terminal 3 will play a crucial role in expanding the airport’s capacity to handle up to 70 million passengers annually. Dublin Airport is a vital gateway for Ireland’s connectivity, and as air travel continues to grow, it’s essential to have the infrastructure in place to meet future demands. Terminal 3 is not just a building; it’s a strategic investment in Ireland’s connectivity and in the efficiency of Dublin Airport. This expansion will not only accommodate the increasing number of passengers but also enhance the overall travel experience.
The vision for Terminal 3 extends beyond passenger numbers; it emphasises responsible growth and sustainability, recognising the importance of balancing the increasing demands of air travel with environmental responsibility. Terminal 3 will be a flagship project, demonstrating that airports can significantly expand their capacity while minimising their environmental footprint. An important aspect of the project is to set new standards for eco-friendly aviation infrastructure. From energy-efficient systems to smart waste management, Terminal 3 will embrace innovative technologies and practices that align with our commitment to the environment.
This collaboration between CWPA and Ulick & Des McEvaddy marks a milestone in the firm’s portfolio and adds to its legacy of contributing to the architectural environment. As planning and design begin, CWPA is dedicated to working closely with all stakeholders to ensure that Terminal 3 at Dublin Airport becomes a symbol of efficiency, innovation, and aesthetic appeal.
