A.R.M. Majlis Pavilion
arm-majlis-pavilion-art-dubai
The A.R.M. Majlis Pavilion is an unbuilt proposal for a temporary majlis for A.R.M. Holding, lead partner of Art Dubai, at the fair's 20th edition in 2026. Sited on the waterfront at Madinat Jumeirah, it would replace the standard white tent. Visitors would enter beneath a shaded colonnade and gather in a sunken seating area.
A colonnade of tensile fabric arches is designed to wrap the pavilion. The arches reinterpret the areesh, the Gulf's palm-frond shelter, at a larger scale, with perforated panels between them to cast shifting shade. The steel frame, fabric and panels were chosen so the structure could be dismantled after the fair and reused.
