Downtown, blue hour — Dubai, United Arab Emirates

Dubai, United Arab Emirates · 18 – 21 January 2025

Vertical Dubai

Skyscrapers, the Marina and the desert: Dubai through blue hour, geometry and dunes at sunset.

The story

How it went

Dubai is a city to look at from below and from above. I hunted for geometry beneath the Downtown skyscrapers, flew (with a proper permit) over the Marina at dawn and spent an afternoon in the desert, where the dunes draw lines no architect could design. The contrast between glass and sand is the real story of this city.
