Everyday Icons / Hiding In Plain Sight (Abu Dhabi)

No.0054 - AL SHAHAMA GREEN MARKET

I don’t often find myself in this part of Abu Dhabi so when I did, I took the opportunity to grab some shots of this building.

Al Shahama Green Market - I assume - takes its name from the shades of green which adorn its exterior. There’s a lovely use of simple geometry on the exterior. Internally, the arches seen on the outside continue in to form the main spaces. There’s an array of stores selling groceries, perfumes, clothing, electronics and more. I can imagine this place gets pretty busy in the evenings and on weekends!

Architect and completion date unknown.
