Natural materials play an important role in the passenger experience at Incheon International Airport Terminal 2. As part of the terminal expansion, grand staircases were introduced in both the East and West Wings, creating generous spaces for movement, waiting and informal gathering.
Junckers' Beech Sylvaket Harmony was selected for the stepped seating areas and surrounding floors. Finished with Silkmatt lacquer, the beech flooring adds warmth to the bright, glass-lined interior while providing a robust surface designed for constant public use. Installed on a steel-framed structure with two layers of water-resistant plywood, the floor forms an integral part of the terminal's architectural expression.
