Example Arish

©Liz Walsh

This building made of woven palm fronds sits within a larger courtyard of the Dubai Museum and Al Fahidi Fort.

This woven structure is called an 'Arish', which is a traditional summer house. The Arish features the popular wind tower design - the square shaped feature on top of the main single-story structure - used to channel airflow into the house.

It was mind-meltingly hot when I took this.
