Denver International Airport
Visioning
Public realm design for a place that supports over 82M people annually.
Underneath the iconic white tents... what does it take to re-imagine one of the world's busiest airports?
Insights
Gathering data on passenger flows, arrivals, departures, security wait times, and use patterns. Stakeholder research, including DEN leadership inputs and stakeholder groups.
Narrative
Uniquely Colorado // Mountain peaks that greet expansive plains, crisp air felt first on the jet bridge, blue skies that penetrate the eyes, wind swept snow banks, and all of the experiences the land provides.
Scope
To create a safer, more efficient passenger experience through TSA screening, DEN relocated security lanes to the east and west sides of Level 6, creating an opportunity to reimagine the Great Hall. Jamie led the visioning effort with DEN stakeholders to understand design aspirations, operational and maintenance needs, and the current traveler experience. The vision creates a generous public space surrounded by local Colorado retail and restaurants, with a central bar, public art, custom lighting and seating, and static and digital experiences. Jamie has been involved from visioning in 2024 through implementation; the project is scheduled for completion in 2027.
