Burj Al Arab Hotel

Dubai, UAE

Description:

The Burj Al Arab stands as one of the most iconic landmarks in the world and a defining symbol of Dubai’s architectural ambition. Rising 321 meters above the Arabian Gulf, the hotel was designed to resemble the sail of a ship — a bold expression of contemporary design and engineering innovation. Build on a man-made island 280 meters offshore, the structure is connected to the mainland by a private bridge, creating an exclusive setting that emphasizes luxury and distinction. Completed in 1999, the Burj Al Arab has been recognized globally as a masterpiece of modern architecture and a benchmark for hospitality design.

The project’s structural was conceived to withstand the region’s extreme climatic conditions, from high temperatures and humidity to strong coastal winds and saline environments. The building’s double-curved facade not only defines its distinctive shape but also ensures excellent daylight control and thermal performance.

The project results in a landmark that seamlessly merges engineering and architectural, with cultural identity, embodying Dubai’s transformation into a global hub of innovation and luxury.
