    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The Jewel Changi Airport in Singapore appears to resemble a glass donut. With its circular layout, this glass structure spans 10 stories and covers 1.4 million square feet. The Jewel, from the outside, has a concave roof. Inside the building, the roof comes down slightly, allowing for a large waterfall to pierce the middle of the space. The glass of the building permits for natural light to seep through. This light compliments the luscious greenery inside of the structure, mimicking a large forest. Hidden among the foliage are concrete walkways, staircases, and stores, blending in so well as to not disturb the nature aspect. The structure has a strong use of triangular shapes, not just for reinforcement and strength, but also for geometrical aesthetics. The entrances are scattered all about the facility, with some more elaborate ones that one must enter through suspended, glass walkways that connect the Jewel with the rest of the airport. This structure signifies the cultural aspects that allows a space for people to connect with all their senses. The use of greenery and natural light throughout the facility encapsulates visitors, allowing for them to be immersed into nature while between flights. This building represents social status with its expensive build, pricey stores, and the fact it is attached to an airport, indicating that it will mainly be used by those with enough money to travel abroad. ]]></dcterms:description>
