Why did the client choose containers?

The container was the perfect building block to bring the architect's concept into reality. It proved to be an interesting architectural feature for Dubai Design District and the speed of construction was unmatched.

Why we love this project?

D3 has been conceived as a global hub for individuals, organisations and brands engaged in design-related activities, and is a milestone achievement in Dubai’s efforts to build a knowledge and innovation based economy. The purpose-built structure marks a new chapter in the region’s construction through incorporating ‘cargotecture’ into Dubai’s mainstream urban planning and development. We loved the architectural design and worked on this project as the "specialist contractor." This is a high-visibility project in an ideal location. Smart Box had the previlige of working with some amazing partners to bring this project to reality.
