Central Market Re-Development

Abu Dhabi, UAE
Architect: Fosters + Partners

 

The Central Market in Abu Dhabi, also known as “The Souk at Central Market,” is a modern commercial and residential complex located in the heart of the capital of the United Arab Emirates. Designed by world-renowned architects Fosters + Partners, the Central Market was conceived to replace the old city souk, combining traditional elements with contemporary design. Opened in 2011, the complex creates a vibrant urban centre that reflects the cultural diversity of Abu Dhabi.

The importance of the Central Market in the city lies in its ability to act as a commercial and social hub. The market is not only a place for shopping, but also a meeting point for the community: the state-of-the-art facilities and central location make the Central Market an essential destination for those visiting Abu Dhabi.

PUK’s outdoor lighting solutions are ideal for highlighting the unique architecture designed by Fosters + Partners, creating light plays that enhance structural and decorative details. In addition, efficient lighting from PUK can improve safety and visibility in pedestrian areas and public spaces, making the market even more welcoming and functional.
