The Ballroom is part of the luxury Hotel in Abu Dhabi, designed to accommodate 3,000 guests within one space. It is conceived as a dome and shaped as a flower, cladded in Travertine stone and decorated with golden cornicing. In the centre of the space there is a spiral floor pattern, a point of gravity, darted with rays of sun and surrounded by the swarm of floating ceiling petals.
