You step through the entrance and the ordinary light of Dubai falls away—cool LEDs, slow harmonic pulses and the smell of resin and ozone replace the city heat. In AYA, rooms rearrange scale and expectation: gardens that glow as you walk, a river of suspended light that seems to pull at your balance, and an observatory where star-fields respond to your touch.
