Notice: Function amp_is_available was called incorrectly. `amp_is_available()` (or `amp_is_request()`, formerly `is_amp_endpoint()`) was called too early and so it will not work properly. WordPress is not currently doing any hook. Calling this function before the `wp` action means it will not have access to `WP_Query` and the queried object to determine if it is an AMP response, thus neither the `amp_skip_post()` filter nor the AMP enabled toggle will be considered. The function was called too early (before the plugins_loaded action) to determine the plugin source. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information.

Notice: Function amp_is_available was called incorrectly. `amp_is_available()` (or `amp_is_request()`, formerly `is_amp_endpoint()`) was called too early and so it will not work properly.

National Bank of Dubai | Carlos Ott

National Bank of Dubai



In the most prominent location on the Dubai Creek, the building has a large golden glass façade in the shape of a sail that reflects the sunsets, held by the vertical circulation and services housed in two vertical cores clad in light grey granite. The bank directory is located at the top of the tower with a major view of the old town. Offices are divided by liquid crystal glass partitions that can become non transparent when desired. The golden glass is made with particles of gold that give it its unique colour that changes with the different tonalities of the sky.
