Alongside designer Paul Tinker and developer Esteban Almiron, UK-based illustrator Sam Chivers has created a series of animations visualizing the sustainable development of airports for a recent Guardian piece. The animations, which describe the topics of transport, alternative energy, noise reduction, airport terminal design, biodiversity, and fuel efficiency, capture the passage of time from morning to evening in Heathrow Airport in London.
The article describes recent technological and design advancements in airports around the world that serve to reduce emissions, create healthier indoor environments, and overall support the wellbeing of communities near airports and under flight paths.
