 Striking, sumptuous and thought-provoking in equal measure, Abu Dhabi's Shawati' magazine serves as a cultural bridge between the rich traditions and brave modernity that define this unique city. Shawati's blend of incisive interviews, quality reporting and stunning photojournalism - presented in a unique Arabic-English format - provides local residents, expatriates and visitors with a unique view of this city as it establishes itself as a global cultural centre.
One of Shawati' Publishing’s special projects is The Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan Grand Mosque Book Project. In an effort to portray the visual splendour of the mosque through the lens of internationally acclaimed photographers and to properly document the process it went through to reach its final magnificence, Shawati’ commissioned the official book to provide a record of the construction and the sentiment behind its design. Based on guidelines given by the Executive Council, and under the support of ADACH, this project will document the full scope of the mosque, from conceptualisation to finalisation. The purpose is to introduce visitors to a structure which is iconic to Abu Dhabi and the Islamic world as a whole. Featuring exclusive interviews with the head architects, designers and craftsmen together with stunning photographs, this book will be your definitive guide to the mosque's journey into creation.
