本项目位于以色列境内的沙漠中，是该国家最新的一座国际机场，极具未来主义。机场融入漫无边际的永恒的自然环境中，紧邻红海（Red Sea），成为了以色列的新大门。

以色列境内两家处于行业尖端的建筑事务所Amir Mann-Ami Shinar Architects and Planners与建筑事务所Moshe Zur Architects合作设计了这座新机场，并宣布这座名为Ilan and Asaf Ramon的国际机场将于近日投入运行，为红海海滨的度假城市埃拉特（Eilat）和周边地区提供交通运输服务。

受以色列机场管理局（IAA）的委托，设计经理——建筑师Amir Mann担任了本项目的建筑设计师，通过周密的调研和设计，最终出色地完成了国际机场的设计。值得一提的是，本机场位于以色列的Timna市，也是该国家首个在未开发地区从零开始建造的民用机场。

The country’s newest airport is a futuristic desert mirage built into the timeless natural surrounding and becomes the new Southern gate to Israel by the Red Sea.Timna, Israel: Amir Mann-Ami Shinar Architects and Planners in partnership with Moshe Zur Architects, two of Israel’s leading firms, announce the opening of Israel’s Ilan and Asaf Ramon International Airport, servicing the Red Sea resort city of Eilat and surrounding region. Commissioned by the Israel Airport Authority (IAA), the project was handled from A to Z by design manager, Architect Amir Mann. Located in Timna, it is Israel’s first civil airport built from scratch (“greenfield”).

该机场占地1,250英亩，在设计风格上将极简主义和未来主义融合在了一起，坐落于内盖夫沙漠（Negev Desert）中部，全部使用同一种建筑语言打造而成。本项目的建筑师兼任项目设计经理，带领着超过45家咨询公司、几乎所有以色列当地的工程师，以及ARUP伦敦分部的航天建筑技术团队，完成了本项目的设计。本国际机场位于埃拉特以北18公里处，将为以色列、约旦和埃及西奈沙漠（Sinai Desert）的本土和国际旅游业作出首屈一指的贡献。

Spread across 1,250 acres, the airport is a minimalist and futuristic design in the middle of the Negev Desert, wholly unified under one architectural language. The architects served as project design managers, leading more than 45 consulting firms, nearly all local Israeli engineers, alongside ARUP London’s aviation team. Situated just 18 KM north of Eilat, the Ilan and Asaf Ramon International Airport will become a major game changer for local and international tourism to Israel, Jordan and Egypt’s Sinai Desert.

Ilan and Asaf Ramon国际机场的落成具有重大的意义，首先，它将施工和运营的开销完全控制在了预算之内，要知道，当今，在全球，类似的项目中有一半都面临着资金不足的窘境；其次，它能够在非常紧迫的时间内按照原计划开放；第三，它是在一片完全未经开发过的基地上建成的，这里没有任何可以利用的基础设施，包括先进的导航、着陆和行李处理系统、跑道和控制中心大楼等在内的一切设施都是在本项目中设计并高质量完成的，与此同时，还保留了周边现有的自然环境；以上，所有的一切设计都在建筑师们的领导下一一完成，实现了这个国际机场的壮举，最终，整个机场都由同一种独特的建筑设计语言打造而成，同时，也将内盖夫沙漠中迷人的山景引入了机场的景观视野之中。

The Ilan and Asaf Ramon International Airport was completed with significant achievements, Firstly, an international airport fully constructed and operational within budget, funded for less than half of similar projects worldwide; on schedule for opening day within an exceptionally tight timeframe; a “greenfield” without existing infrastructures, included the creation and implementation of cutting edge navigation, landing, and baggage handling systems, runways, and operational buildings – while maintaining the existing natural surrounding and a control of quality; all led by the team of architects to a rather extraordinary feat – the entire airport is unified under one unique holistic design language that frames the stunning scenery of the Negev Desert mountainscape.

Ilan and Asaf Ramon国际机场的开通意味着目前位于埃拉特市中心的J. Hozman埃拉特机场的关闭。随着城市的发展，这座原先位于市中心的旧机场已经不再能够为城市带去便利，反而逐渐变成了城市发展的阻碍。而随着旧机场的废除，埃拉特的城市结构能够重新统一起来，激发出其发展和再生的潜力。Ilan and Asaf Ramon国际机场将作为以色列国家的新南门，预计每年将接待225万名乘客，而这一数字预计将在第二年增长至425万。

该机场拥有一座建筑面积45,000平方米的航站楼、总长3,600米的飞机跑道和滑行道以及40个停机坪，确保了国内和国际的交通和运输。航站楼的南北两侧分别有一座辅助性服务建筑，这两座辅助性服务建筑共计36,210平方米，此外，还设有一座45米高的飞航管制塔台。

The opening of the Ilan and Asaf Ramon International Airport will coincide with the closing of the existing J. Hozman Eilat Airport that is currently located in the middle of the city of Eilat. The old airport was a barrier within the city, dividing and disrupting its development. With its annulment, the city’s urban fabric will be able to unite, surfacing potential opportunities and regeneration. The Ilan and Asaf Ramon International Airport will serve as the new southern gate to Israel and is expected to host 2.25 million passengers per year, that figure bound to grow to an estimated 4.25 million passengers per year.

The Airport features a 45,000 square-meters Passenger Terminal Building and 3,600 meters long runway and taxiway, alongside 40 aprons, allowing for domestic and international traffic. The two support structures to the north and south of the terminal measure a combined 36,210 square-meters with a 45 meters-high Air Control Tower.
