Commanding Lounge Views For Aircrew

Air Hongkong’s senior management engaged One Space to design and deliver a 1,400 square foot aircrew lounge within the airside area of the Hong Kong International Airport at Chek Lap Kok. To serve the wide range of aircrew needs as they transited on and off duty, the modestly sized space needed to accommodate several distinct facilities to avoid crew members disrupting each other through the course of various flight operations.

We organised the floor plate in zones segueing from well-lit to somnolent, and from active to quiet. Our lighting design played a key role in helping keep pilots alert in some rooms whilst affording sleep in others. The highly compact floor plan layout included 6 private, sound-proofed, tailored bunk rooms with washrooms and showers, a pantry, a briefing and flight-prep room, mailboxes, a casual conversation area, and a rest area overlooking the tarmac. The lounge garnered unanimously positive feedback from the pilots.
