Ewald Damen, Creative Director at Virgile + Partners said:
“The men’s shoes and accessories anchor site serves as a focal point within Dubai Mall, featuring an open, circular layout that presents unique design challenges. Our approach thoughtfully embraced the existing architecture, incorporating fragmented circular overlapping walls within the floor plan to maintain an open flow while elegantly defining distinct departments through these statement architectural elements.”
