This past week, Dar representatives participated in Dubai Design Week 2019, the region’s largest creative festival. Their talk – titled “Architectural VR: From Theory to Reality (V to R)” – discussed how cutting-edge technology is affecting the way design ideas are formed and communicated.

The presentation showcased an innovative transportation mega-project recently designed by Dar in Dubai and explained how the shift to VR during the early stages of conceptual design and development in this project had a significant influence on subsequent design decisions and on the complete immersion later on.

The talk, which was remarkably well received by the audience, was followed by a panel discussion on the future of Dubai, post 2020.
