Kurokawa was commissioned to design the new Kuala Lumpur Airport as well as to create urban-design guidelines for the entire transportation complex. The project will include Kurokawa's main terminal, that, thanks to a generous use of glass, will forge a direct visual link between the rain forest and the terminal. The entire ceiling surface will be clad with strips of local wood to symbolically bring the jungle inside.
