With pop-up fashion boutiques, streams of specialist food trucks, a large stage featuring a non-stop line-up of DJs, live music and on-site art installations, last weekend’s Meet d3 was a celebration of all things cultural.
The event, staged inside the newly inaugurated Dubai Design District, was a way of introducing the public to the area, which will be functioning as a business park for the fashion, art and design industries when the offices are filled over the next six months.
Spread out over the large outdoor spaces between the buildings, the event, which ran from Thursday to Saturday, was a sneak peek into what the completed district will look like when it is fully operational.
The park promises to be characterised by distinct public areas and unique street furniture under shaded walkways.
At the weekend, Emirati designer Khalid Shafar unveiled his newest design, City Bench – an unevenly levelled bench to accommodate people of all ages and sizes.
Familiar international names will also be moving into the park. Lasvit, the Czech glass company – one of the most prestigious global brands in its field – will be moving its Dubai office into the district this year.
