Creating the JFKT1 cultural experience: art, branding, film and digital

18 Mar 2026
Airport design, planning and development
Airports use art, branding and digital installations – which are typically separate programs – to enhance the guest experience. JFK T1 had a vision of doing something different: developing these elements into one integrated program to create an all-encompassing cultural experience. JFK T1 worked with Arup to orchestrate a team of leading creative professionals to synthesize these disparate elements into a seamless experience that has a strong New York sense of place. JFK T1 and Arup will share insights into how their team has worked to create a destination that carries the electricity and excitement of traveling to and from New York.
  • The role that art, brand, film and digital media play in shaping a world-class guest experience
  • How to create a unique sense of place in terminal environments
  • How to orchestrate art, brand, film and digital media so they are integrated with each other
  • How to coordinate cultural program elements seamlessly with the advertising program
  • How to create a destination terminal experience to drive increased guest dwell time
Speakers
Gideon D'Arcangelo, principal - Arup
Quentin Brathwaite, design lead - JFK New Terminal One
