Walk out of Dubai’s sun and into a room that refuses the desert. The doorway is a shock of cold—the air sharp, the floor crisp underfoot—and the first sculpture you meet is a frosted outline of a familiar skyline. Inside Chillout, everything from benches to chandeliers is carved from ice; soft colored lights pick out ripples and architectural motifs, turning familiar Dubai icons into cool, tactile art.
