Time Out Market Dubai

Description

Time Out Market Dubai is a food court curated by Time Out, bringing pop-ups from the best kitchens in the city to the Souk Al Bahar. It features bars, restaurants, performance spaces, and artwork in a location overlooking the Burj Khalifa lake. Solus supplied a handmade terracotta tile that evokes the aesthetics of traditional Arabian architecture.

Tiles Used

Terracotta Cross 2HXY101, Terracotta Star 2HXY102

Outcome

Time Out Markets have become phenomenally successful worldwide as an aggregating station of the best cuisine that a city has to offer. The food and drink stalls that populate the food court are invited by the Time Out organisation, based upon their profound understanding of the dining culture of the host city.

Zebra was retained to design the new Time Out Market Dubai and approached Solus Head of London Sales, Michael Irvine with a clear brief, “Zebra wanted to express an aesthetic that was in keeping with the history of the location; something that recalled the geometrical ceramics from traditional Islamic architecture of the region. We provided a range of handmade tiles that achieve this while providing the warmth and softness of terracotta.”

Located in the Souk Al Bahar, looking across the Burj Khalifa lake, Time Out Market is in a prime position. The market contains three bars and 17 food counters which deliver an array of international dining experiences; local artist, Abdulla Lutfi recently unveiled a large mural depicting everyday Emirati life in the past and present; and a stage area hosts bands and DJs at the weekend.
