Elegance and luxury call for B LIGHT to illuminate the new Dubai Mall expansion


The Dubai Mall is located in the heart of the prestigious Downtown Dubai, facing Burj Khalifa, the highest skyscraper of the world. The Mall is the world’s largest and most-visited retail and entertainment destination and welcomes more than 80 million visitors annually.

The internal floor space is 5.9 million square feet; there are over 1,300 retail outlets including two monumental department stores, Galleries Lafayette and Bloomingdale’s and over 200 food and beverage outlets.

The Dubai Mall offers an unparalleled retail mix combined with world-class dining, entertainment and leisure attractions. The newly expanded Fashion Avenue enhances Dubai’s premium shopping, over 150 new prestigious shopping and dining experiences, the Fashion Avenue qualifies to be the Middle East’s leading luxury shopping destination.

The luminaire chosen to illuminate the outdoor area of the Mall is BASTER X1, a recessed IP67 downlight with adjustable light distribution. B LIGHT’S design is clean and the construction of its luminaires is simple. The fixture and flange are made with turning and milling alluminum, the reflector is in polycarbonate and has a protective glass.

BASTER X1 is equipped with an internal driver that controls electronically the operating temperature and guarantees that the fixture will last with ambient temperature up to 60° C / 140° F.

Another perfect solution from B LIGHT’s collection of luminaires; adding the final touch to a world-class project like the Dubai Mall Expansion has been another successful challenge for the Italian Brand.
