Metamark successfully introduced the concept of MiA™ to Dubai Golf which operates the Emirates Golf Club. MiA is a recently introduced range of architectural films which is used to transform interior infrastructure while avoiding disruption and considerable cost.
The Emirates Club has three challenging golf courses and is one of the few venues in the world that offers night-golf, with a full course floodlighting until 1AM. The club has four changing rooms, two male and two female, with over seven hundred lockers available. With use and over time, preservative oils in sunscreens used by the club’s customers, and countless cleaning interventions, have caused permanent and unsightly damage to the dark maple locker doors and surrounds.
With a large membership base paying annual subscriptions, and practically round-the-clock activity thanks to the popularity of night-golf, closing the changing rooms and stripping out existing lockers for replacement was not considered practical. Another solution was sought.
Metamark scoped the project with its client and after initial consultation two MiA films from the available range were chosen – Washed Ash, a light textured colour, and Drift Oak, a darker, contrasting counterpoint. The client elected to have locker numbers, and its logo printed on the MiA film ,which is receptive to digital printing techniques.
Metamark introduced one of its approved installation partners, Wrap Zone AE. In 10 days, all the changing rooms’ lockers were transformed, lifting the whole space into a modern, light and luxurious environment for the club’s membership which fully reflected the quality and class of the venue.
During the process, no changing room was closed, and members were able to continue using the space without inconvenience. There were no skips full of trade waste, and all trim waste was removed from site as it was generated, keeping the environment clean and safe.
