Manda Airport Terminal

Design and construction supervision of the terminal building, with departure and arrival lounges, offices, access roads and landscaping.

AIA designed the new terminal building at Manda Airport, which serves Lamu, for the Kenya Airports Authority, and supervised its construction. It replaced the original terminal, whose passenger waiting areas were built from mangrove poles under thatched roofs. The new building uses traditional lime plaster and coral stone cladding, its departure area opens onto an internal courtyard, and solar panels were installed on the roof. The scope also covered the arrival and departure lounges, offices, access roads and landscaping.
