Otter Air Services Hangar and Passenger Lounge
Otter Air Services’ world-class, state-of-the-art hangar and passenger lounge embody sophistication, functionality, and innovation. Located on the Gerald R. Ford International Airport campus, Otter consists of a dynamic 40,000-square-foot new facility, which includes a 20,000-square-foot hangar that houses a fleet of Swiss-made Pilatus aircraft. With a focus on exceptional customer service and a high-quality travel experience, hangar amenities include indoor and outdoor areas of hospitality for both personal and business use, increased visibility into the hangar, and unobstructed airside views.
Integrated Architecture served as Project Designer and Architect of Record, collaborating with OTJ Architects, who provided interior design.
“We are immensely proud of this new facility. It represents the culmination of hard work, dedication, and an unwavering commitment to excellence.
Our team set forth to collaborate with the industry’s finest partners to design an aircraft hangar like no other. Every detail has been meticulously planned to enable us to operate with precision and ensure we continue to deliver the highest level of service for our esteemed clients.
From the initial consultation to the final walk-through, the Integrated Architecture team's professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail have far exceeded our expectations. Their ability to blend functionality with aesthetic appeal has resulted in a facility that not only meets our operational needs but also stands as a beacon of architectural excellence.
The collaborative spirit fostered by Integrated Architecture ensured that our vision was brought to life in every aspect of the design. Their team was always receptive to our feedback and worked tirelessly to incorporate our ideas, enhancing the overall outcome. The end result is a state-of-the-art hangar that provides optimal space utilization, several “one-of-a-kind” features, and a visually stunning environment that reflects the Otter brand and experience.
Thank you, Integrated Architecture, for turning our vision into reality and creating a hangar facility that truly is world-class.”
