VOX Outdoor - Dubai
An Open-Air Cinema That Got the Greenery Right
A Rooftop Experience Like No Other
There’s a lot to be said for outdoor cinema done well. Comfortable seating helps, as does a good sound system and a clear view. But what really elevates a rooftop like VOX Moonlight Cinema in Dubai is everything else, from the mood to the finishing touches and how the space holds up over time.
Beyond the Basics: The Climate Challenge
That last part is often overlooked. In a climate like Dubai’s, it’s not enough for outdoor spaces to look good on day one. They need to keep their shape through months of intense sun and heat. That’s where this particular cinema stands out. Nearly two years on, its green walls and artificial plants still look fresh. Not ‘good for the heat’ just good, full stop.
The Key to Long-Lasting Greenery: UVSilx
UVSilx is not about flashy names or gimmicks. It’s about providing artificial foliage that stands the test of time. It doesn’t fade, crack, or lose its colour in the sun. No sticky coatings, no sprayed-on finishes, just durable greenery designed to last outdoors.
A Design Solution That Endures
For this project, UVSilx was used to line the walls and soften the seating areas. It adds privacy, a sense of calm, and a little unexpected luxury. Most importantly, it still looks exactly how it should. The cinema didn’t go for a quick fix or something temporary, and it shows.
Subtle Design Decisions That Make a Difference
Spaces like this prove that the best design decisions often happen in the background. You may not notice the greenery at first, but you’d notice if it wasn’t there. Or worse, if it had faded to a washed-out blue in the sun.
When Quality Materials Make All the Difference
VOX Moonlight shows what’s possible when outdoor spaces are treated with the same care as interiors. And when the right materials are chosen from the start.
