Pudong International Airport Terminal 2, which won an Award of Excellence in the commercial interiors category of the 2008 International Achievement Awards, is on the east of Terminal 1, and consists of a main hall and boarding gallery in Pudong, China. Both have eye-shaped skylights on the roof. Some skylights are translucent; others are opaque. To obtain a uniform interior decorative look along with natural lighting, the eye-shaped inner fabric units were suspended under all of the skylights.
