Arab Architects Issue 11 presents Shindagha Historic District and X Architects’ interventions in Dubai.
The project revitalizes a key waterfront neighborhood, preserving its heritage while introducing contemporary elements.
It encompasses the Welcome Pavilion, Story of the Creek Museum, and the Perfume House.
Design strategies focus on materiality, light, and spatial continuity to balance old and new.
The work transforms the district into a cultural destination that celebrates history, memory, and place-making.
