PROJECT DETAILS
Dubai Opera
Dubai, UAE
Installed Products
Dubai Opera is a truly unique venue and the emirate’s first purpose built multi-format performing arts theatre situated in the heart of Downtown Dubai. Designed by Janus Rostock of Atkins, Dubai Opera resembles a traditional dhow boat and all elements of the interior and exterior are in keeping with the heritage of Dubai which revolves largely around the water-based industries such as fishing and pearl fishing.
The dynamically-lit glass sculpture titled Symphony by Lasvit designer Libor Sošťák greets the guests as they enter the Dubai Opera building. Symphony spans three floors of the main atrium and draws its inspiration from fishing nets in a vortex of bubbles rising through the depths of the sea. This 5 tonne sculpture is lit by nearly 3,000 internal LED sources and sparkles with thousands of hand-blown crystal components. In a subtle reference to the trade that stood as the foundation of Dubai, the geometric spacing of glass elements resembles fishing nets moving through water.
