Liwa Village 2024- Abu Dhabi

That’s a wrap on the second season at #Liwavillage!

Thank you to Brian Morgan, Diosmer Reynoso, Roberto Warnert and Julian Phillips for bringing me back on such a unique and challenging project, and once again it was pleasure collaborating with the Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi (DCT Abu Dhabi) and working with the terrific creative team of Phillip Bucknell, Lama Kaddura and Nicholas Coen at #Avantgarde.

Big thanks to my hard working crew- Robert Coelho for heading the project up for me, Saer Aboushakra w/ Events to Remember for AVL support, Ahmad Abdo with IT Techsquare, and Prince Alexander and Dave Selby at IPS Integrated Project Solutions for architectural lighting. And lastly to my dear friend Esther Rovin for making the trip over and her fabulous landscaping and beautification efforts.
