The Buildings' function, form and technology reflect not only the charm of this rapidly growing industry, but also the usage of new technologies and new materials in the new era. Based on the introduction of hub network, commercialization, diversification and advance of foreign airport terminals, China's airport terminals are analyzed through T2 of Shanghai Pudong International Airport and T2 of Beijing Capital Airport in this paper. Moreover, four development trends of airport terminals in China, including human-building-environment harmony, sustainable development, commercial diversification and ecological technology-oriented development, are proposed according to the current construction state and associated influencing factors.
