Burj Al Arab – The Building that Put Dubai on the World Map
Manage episode 520050200 series 3658206
In this episode, we explore how the Burj Al Arab transformed Dubai from a coastal trading hub into a global destination.
From Tom Wright’s first sketches to the construction of its artificial island. From its soaring atrium to the famous stunts on its helipad. This is the story of how architecture became branding, and how one hotel reshaped the identity of a city.
A sail rising from the sea, a symbol of ambition, and the moment Dubai stepped onto the world stage.
