usually, beeing at the Airport "Tegel" - be it right before taking off,
or after landing, or when picking up friends - you probably just won't find the
time to have a closer look at all the design details of this 70ies design beauty
- which is a bit of a shame.. - ..because, at least after my opinion, the Airport
Tegel is definately one of the most beautiful buildings of Berlin - maybe even
one of the Top10 most beautiful airports of all times..? At least it's definately
the 'nicest' of all the three airports we currently have to offer here in Berlin..:)
...
sadly enough the flooring of the building was renovated replaced some
years ago.. so you'll only find remains of the typical triangle and sexangle shaped
patterns on some parts of the outside flooring.
Other design details are of course still there - and probably not as easily replaceable
as the flooring.: from hexagonal columns, sexangular pillars and pyramidal shaped
ceiling constructions to round edged windows and desks - the variety of cute little
angles, pictogramms, signs, lamps, colorful information displays and other design
details you may discover at the Airport Tegel is virtually infinite - if you happen
to find the necessary amout of free time to stroll around a bit ..:]
and here's again some selected pictures..:

outside you will still find some of the original triangle / hexagonal flooring
