One of the carbon fibre entry portals at Expo 2020 in Dubai
The carbon fibre entry portals at Expo 2020 in Dubai were designed by British architecture studio Asif Khan. Mashrabiya is a traditional architectural element in Islamic design, encompassing latticed screens often showcasing intricate and complex geometric patterns that shade exterior windows and balconies. Asif Khan took a typical mashrabiya and folded it to create the long gateway.
