For the American University in Dubai in Media City, Dubai, UAE, our team developed a lighting approach that supports clarity, comfort, and a productive academic environment. We worked closely with the project teams to ensure each lighting element was positioned with purpose, enhancing both functionality and visual balance.Focused illumination was applied in key learning and circulation areas to improve visibility and orientation, while softer ambient lighting helped create a calm and welcoming atmosphere throughout. The result is a well-coordinated lighting setup that elevates the overall experience, supporting both daily operations and the university’s modern architectural setting.
