Punta del Este C.A. Curbelo International Airport
Providing access to the Uruguayan Atlantic coast, the airport has been conceived using the shapes of the aircraft design.
The steel structure is formed by three parallel forms, one for the vehicular arrival, one for the check in hall, and the last for the gates; the latter two united by a duty free area so that arriving as well as departing passengers go through it.
