A deep dive into Al Karama 2

The neighborhood is one of the most populated in Dubai, and Karama is home to thousands of people, plus heaps of restaurants and shops.

Covers an area of only 2 square kilometers Several families chat and interact with each other on the green patches of the site.

Several Areas to do yoga and play badminton and lanes for cycling.

Why a community centre?

One could argue that Karama in itself is a community event since the area is constantly buzzing with activity. You will see every holiday celebrated to the max in the community. There are many on-going events in the Burjuman Mall for both adults and children. Family-friendly events will be found in Karama Park. THis is where the idea of a community space really comes together, the already tight-knit community can potentially share an actual space to do activities, visit the A.V Room and Library.

Al Karama is a structural change beyond the concrete and glass skyscrapers lined up in Dubai; giving way to wide public boulevards and the steady pace of recurring low-rise buildings pinned on each side of the roads.
