ABU DHABI GLOBAL MARKET SQUARE

MULTI-MEDIA FACADE

iDEA&Associates, in partner with OSRAM Traxon E:CUE, supported Debbas in the design and integration of the multi-media facade on Abu Dhabi Global Market Square Tower 3 and Tower 4. iDEA provided the design, engineering and R&D of the custom system for this innovative double LED display.

Our role as Multi-media facade consultants for MUBADALA was to design custom solutions that could integrate the technology onto the building, in a retrospective way and deliver a turnkey solution to the client from the concept, design and engineering through to installation. iDEA&Associates was also involved in the supervision of procurement, production, assembly and installation on the building.

The solution that was delivered to the client meet all building regulations and compliance standards and was designed with the primary focus of preserving the integrity of the building whilst creating a display for all spectators to enjoy.

iDEA&Associates continue to serve MUBADALA as Multi-Media Facade consultant on ADGMS multi-media screens and on other assets of the portfolio.
