Alif - The Mobility Pavilion

2020 Dubai Expo focuses on the theme, Connecting Minds and Creating the Future, providing a platform for creativity, innovation and collaboration globally. Foster + Partners (F+P) has designed the first of the three signature pavilions based on the sub-themes of Mobility, Sustainability and Opportunity.

Alif - The Mobility Pavilion, designed by Fosters + Partners occupies a dedicated plaza at the south entrance to the EXPO site with a lively, dynamic landscape conceived as a fairground with undulating tracks and demonstration areas for the latest technological innovations related to mobility.

F+P required a dynamic lighting design approach which would enhance and animate the external architecture and landscape. With extensive experience in theatre and architectural lighting DALD helped create a sympathetic synergy between the architecture and the landscape.
