This is a redevelopment of the Dubai World Trade Centre, the key venue for international conferences and trade fairs in Dubai, the economic hub of the UAE. It is a mixed-use complex consisting of five hotel/residential towers (five-star hotels and a serviced apartments), one office tower and seven other buildings (low-rise office buildings, a low-rise designer hotel and a business hotel). Placing emphasis on interior and exterior communal/public spaces such as tree-lined streets and gardens on the ground level and roof-top, the overall site is designed to create venues for people to live, work and enjoy. The development has realized a human-scale townscape of over 1,000,000 square metres. The entire area is focused on landscaping with its well-balanced allocation of streets and public spaces which revitalise the town, and harmonised design of the facades of the high-rise buildings.
