近日，福斯特及合伙人事务所公布了其在沙特阿拉伯设计的新机场的效果图。新设计由沙特阿拉伯西北海岸的超豪华旅游项目AMAALA选定，并于2020年6月24日在新闻发布会上向公众公布。
New images have been unveiled for Foster + Partners-designed new airport in Saudi Arabia. The new design, selected by AMAALA, an ultra-luxury tourism project on Saudi Arabia's northwestern coast that is inspired by the Red Sea, was revealed to the public in a press release on June 24, 2020.

项目将包括一个候机楼和一个塔，由福斯特及合伙人事务所提出建筑概念。机场的总体规划由国际咨询和工程集团Egis设计。新机场的设计灵感来自沙漠中的海市蜃楼，预计将于2023年竣工。一旦正式启用，预计每年可接待100万游客。
The project will comprise a terminal building and a tower - which was conceptualized by the UK based architecture practice Foster + Partners, while the airport master plan was designed by Egis, an international consultancy and engineering group. Taking inspiration from the optical illusion of a desert mirage, the new airport is expected for completion in 2023 and is estimated to accommodate one million travellers per year once it officially opens.

发布会这样描述建筑：“将要从空中抵达机场时，游客会看到令人惊叹的陆地艺术。进入航站楼，迎接游客的将是一座从沙漠中升起的光滑的镜面建筑。”项目中一个宽敞的庭院将成为航站楼的锚点。建筑光滑的室内装潢将为建筑的整体结构带来艺术品式的、定制化的体验。“机场将体现旅行项目的奢华的气质与好客的精神，提供专属的私人俱乐部体验，体现旅游项目中所包含的多方面内容，包括艺术和文化产业、康养与运动产业，大海、阳光以及一种生活方式。”

"On approaching the airport, travellers will see stunning land art from the air. Entering the terminal, visitors will be greeted with a sleek mirrored edifice rising from the desert," stated in a press release. It will include a spacious courtyard and will anchor the terminal. Its sleek interiors will complement the whole structure with unique artwork and tailored experiences. "The airport will reflect AMAALA’s ultra-luxury hospitality spirit, providing an exclusive private-club experience perfectly encapsulating AMAALA’s pillars of art and culture; wellness and sport; and sea, sun, and lifestyle," added in a statement.

事务所高级执行合伙人Gerard Evenden说道：“为了与周围的景观相和谐，航站楼将成为通往AMAALA度假村的唯一门户。”“设计关注艺术、健康和运动的主题，试图为私人航站楼建立一种新模式，提供从度假胜地到飞机的无缝体验。”AMAALA项目首席执行官说道：“游客从下飞机的那一刻起就会感受到个性化的体验。这将不是一个普通的机场，它将创造一个体现超越目的地理念的环境。”

"Responding to the surrounding landscape, the terminal building will form an exclusive gateway to the AMAALA resort," said Senior Executive Partner of Foster + Partners, Gerard Evenden. " "Focusing on the themes of art, wellbeing and sport, the design seeks to establish a new model for private terminals that provides a seamless experience from resort to aeroplane." "A gateway to AMAALA, visitors will be greeted by personalised experiences from the moment they step off the plane. From design to personalisation, this will be no ordinary airport," Chief Executive Officer of AMAALA, Nicholas Naples.
