Entry Portals - Expo 2020 Dubai

The Dubai Expo 2020 Entry Portals, photographed by architectural photographer Dany Eid, stand as powerful symbols of innovation, craftsmanship, and visionary design. Created by Asif Khan Studio, these monumental gateways serve as the first architectural encounter for millions of visitors, setting the tone for the extraordinary creativity and ambition that defined Expo 2020 Dubai.

Crafted entirely from carbon-fiber composite, the portals exemplify the perfect union of art, engineering, and material science — their intricate latticework filters light and shadow in a mesmerizing dance that evolves throughout the day. Dany Eid’s photography captures this dynamic interaction, highlighting the portals’ geometric precision, structural transparency, and the way they frame the vastness of Expo City.

From an aerial and ground-level perspective, each image reveals the scale, rhythm, and symmetry that make these structures a triumph of modern architecture. Beyond their technical brilliance, the Entry Portals embody the spirit of connection and openness — themes at the heart of Expo 2020’s global message
