DUBAI EMBLEM

Conceived as a symbolic landmark within Zaabeel Park, the design of the Emblem Tower reflects the essence of Dubai’s human and cultural identity. The form is composed of three vertical braided lines, representing the integration of spirit, mind, and body — the core components of human civilization and progress.
The site planning follows a spiral geometry, starting wide and open at the perimeter and tightening toward the center. This layout metaphorically expresses the accelerating pace of Dubai’s cultural and urban development over time.
Local heritage influences the tower’s exterior surfaces and public realm. The textured skin evokes sand dunes and palm branches, while outdoor terraces are dedicated to traditional values such as hospitality and authenticity. These features reinforce the tower’s role not only as a visual icon but also as a cultural statement rooted in place.
Designed as an emblem of unity, evolution, and identity, the project combines contemporary expression with deep respect for the natural and social fabric of the UAE
