By applying its extensive expertise in fire safety engineering, Design Confidence helped create a pavilion that was not only visually captivating but also met the rigorous safety requirements necessary for a world-class exhibition.
The Small Worlds Pavilion at Expo 2020 Dubai was a unique architectural and experiential project that celebrated the intricacies of miniature worlds, inviting visitors to explore a series of highly detailed, immersive environments. As part of the globally renowned Expo 2020, the pavilion aimed to showcase innovation, creativity, and storytelling through scaled-down yet meticulously crafted representations of real and imagined spaces.
Given the intricate nature of the exhibits and the need for seamless integration of advanced technology within a confined space, Design Confidence provided a comprehensive peer review of the fire strategy, assessed the adequacy of smoke control measures, and ensured that evacuation routes were optimised for both safety and efficiency.
Design Confidence played a crucial role in ensuring that the pavilion met the highest standards of fire and life safety, delivering expert engineering and advisory services that supported both compliance and visitor safety. Its contribution reinforced its reputation as a trusted specialist in delivering tailored engineering solutions for complex and high-profile projects.
