How to represent the historical evolution of Dubai city?
Through water, without a doubt, is a good way. Dubai is a city that has sought water in the past to protect itself from the overwhelming heat of the desert, or that in the present manipulates and guides water towards the land and the land towards the sea to enrich itself with the Emirates Hills and the Trilogy Palms Islands , and that in the near future will colonize the waters of the Persian Gulf with the The World project. It is in this tension produced by the land-water binomial where lies the essence of the evolution of the city of Dubai. It is in this collision that a splash is released that is deposited on the Za’abeel Park in the form of a drop of water. A drop of water that crystallizes to capture its history and transforms into its purest liquid state to reflect its present and future. From water to the drop of water, from the drop of water to the crystal of water, and from the crystal of water to the hexagon. This natural and abstract sequence serves to structure both the program and to model and geometrize the objects in space.
