Air transport plays a key role, both for the economic, political, and cultural development of a place, as well as for the exchange of ideas, mentalities, cultural and technological elements between the whole world. They are the most important and direct liaison body of the areas on the earth's surface, as they follow aerial routes that are not cut off by territorial obstacles and seas. Their evolution was a turning point for the whole world and created new needs, expectations, and dreams for people, achieving their desire to see the world from above.
Today every major city or even every inaccessible destination has facilities that offer this aerial experience, serving the main reasons for economy and survival. These facilities, known as airports, to establish themselves in an area require a wealth of studies on the physical specifications of that area as well as the extent of the necessity and economic capacity for the operation of an airport.
In recent years there has been a need to establish a new airport. The lion's share of all the placements is held with a rough estimate by the citizens of Larissa who believe that their city needs a political airport and even directly. The city of Larissa is considered one of the most important and fastest growing urban and commercial centers in the country, as well as a hub for communications and transport. The town of Larissa has airport facilities that belongs to air force, which was the first landing of a Greek aircraft under the name "Daedalus" on September 29, 1912. In the past, this airport operated civilian flights in cooperation with Olympic Airways. However, its operation as a political airport was interrupted by its lack of facilities and reduced traffic.
However, the issue of the reopening of the political airport of Larissa alongside with the military airport, is a proposal that has been discussed over the years not only by the residents of the prefecture but is also an overall pursuit of the prefectures of Karditsa, Trikala and Pieria, as the existing airport of N. Anchialos is not the airport of Central Greece because it is not used by transport.
Evaluating all proposals, the subject of this Diplomatic research is the creation of a new international airport in the town of Larissa. The purpose is, to design the terminal station of the airport according to the global standards and rules. The exact location of the airport is described in the northeastern part of the city, close to the boundaries of the existing military airport, but without interfering inside it. The New Larissa International Airport (LRS) would be a travel area where it is possible to travel and arrive in the city via fixed-wing aircraft, planes. The flights will be operated within Greece and some flights will also be operated in certain countries abroad that belong or do not belong to the European Union.
The main facilities of an airport concern all the runways where the take-off takes place – landing of the planes and the interconnection building of the aerial with the ground world, the terminal building. The movement of people inside the terminal is systematized, following a strict flow due to its strict building program. Its design requires special flexibility as the spaces created are selectively accessible depending on the purpose of each person's visit.
The building of the terminal promotes the architecture of the crowd, it is the meeting place of people of different nationalities, ages and destinations. Due to the stringency of the routes, the movements inside are continuous and fast causing stress to people. Its design should therefore be aimed at reassuring them and creating a sense of security. The most successful approach to this goal is to try to integrate nature within it. The city of Larissa is a large town that extends to the largest lowland area of Greece, the Thessalian plain. Innumerable areas of fields surround it creating a set of random rectangular patterns in colors of green and brown. The entire urban fabric is connected to the surrounding crops of the villages creating a "smooth morphological continuity" with minimal elevation differences in the form of "lofts". Known over the years for her intense involvement in rural life and grain production. My inspiration, then, was the main source of life, occupation, and economy of the city, the plain and specifically the cereals.
