Architectural Concept: The Rehl is the traditional lectern. The Rehl carries books in general and more specifically the Koran. In the same way, a library carries and preserves the cultural treasures of a nation in the form of literature, periodicals, and audiovisual media. In this respect, the architectural concept of the library is based symbolically on the lectern, the Rehl, and translates this into a modern 21st-century vocabulary.

Dubai Water Canal is an infrastructure overhaul which winds its way to the Arabian Gulf from the old Dubai Creek effectively turning a significant part of Dubai into an island.

This 3.2km long waterway ranges 80 to 120m in width, is six meters in depth and cuts through Dubai’s main artery, the Sheikh Zayed Road connecting with the Arabian Gulf.

Business Bay is Dubai’s Central Business District. The Business Bay is the same in nature to Manhattan or Ginza which are business centers for the cities of New York and Tokyo. Each building you see in this district has its own unique design which houses several architecturally-striking buildings and world-class amenities. The development of Marasi Business Bay with its 12km promenade, water homes, floating restaurants, five marinas and abundance of leisure and entertainment options, further reinforces its appeal to residents and visitors.
