Project information

For the Ataya charity exhibition in Abu Dhabi, Dune Studios designed Emirates Signature, a complete exhibition landscape celebrating what is truly handmade. A modular system of slender metal frames — in terracotta and sage green — is dressed with translucent illustrated fabrics, where line drawings of palms, dallah pots, and crafted objects weave Arabic and contemporary motifs into a single graphic language.

Planted islands of grasses and palms, custom counters, and lounges turn the arena floor into a calm, village-like maze of boutiques, cafés, and gathering spaces. The studio developed the project end to end: spatial concept, masterplan, booth system, illustration and pattern artwork, signage, and animated content for the venue's central screens.
