This project features a steel frame roof with multi-directional undulation. supporting a field of aluminum pipes at varying heights. Integrated within the system are fans and lighting that guide a meandering path through a series of acclimatization zones that ease the transition from the hot desert climate to intensely cooled indoor environments.

These zones mediate vertical movement from grade to the top of the podium, responding to Dubai's extreme temperature shifts. The entrances pierce through the podium structure, creating sensory focal points that engage scale. light. and tactility.

By weaving architectural performance with climatic responsiveness. The intervention activates the public realm by transforming the podium into an accessible space. shaded. and a socially vibrant space.
