In Arketipo 160, Dubai’s shift toward preserving its cultural heritage is explored through its historic districts.
Following decades of rapid growth, the city turns to restoration as a way to safeguard memory and identity.
X Architects were involved in the adaptive reuse of two historic buildings.
The project also includes the design of a new visitor centre within the district.
Together, the interventions contribute to an open-air museum dedicated to the history and culture of the Emirate.
