Ace designers Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla are the names behind aesthetics of the new Terminal 2 Mumbai Airport. Three years back the duo collaborated with architectural firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill to add a creative edge and design-inspired functionality to the new international terminal.

Working closely with SOM, Roger Duffy, Peter Lefkovits and Laura Ettelman, the designer duo created interiors that were firmly rooted in Indian culture and translated them into a physical, 3D reality. They used Indian textiles such as chikankari and phulkari work on various sections of the airport such as the baggage claim and immigration areas.
