The Abu Dhabi Commercial and Cultural Expo Center
The method and means of tectonic principles that
govern the dispersion of mass and surface in the project proposal are subject
to folding and overlapping of curved tectonic bodies. These tectonic and
massing arrangements are intended to create paths of intersection and to
architecturally express a forward movement projected toward the sea. The architectural
formation is governed by articulation of space for the purpose of international
expositions and cultural showcases. Retail and entertainment are also integrated
as part of the seascape dynamic Expo Center. As the multi-massed complex is a
dispersion of activates ranging from shopping, dining, expositions, and yacht
clubs, it transforms the edge of Abu Dhabi into an iconic sea formation. Iconic
architectural expressions within the proposal are articulated in the sail composition
of being in flight at the precipice of the sea. The flowing sail architectural
node within the complex becomes the epicenter of the showcase functions while
enhancing the viewing, dining, and entertainment experience.
