What is the design process of Dubai Sailing Hotel? What problems have you encountered in the design?

It is said that the design of Dubai Sailing Hotel once attracted the opposition of some conservative forces, because the front is sailing, but the back of the hotel supports beams and columns to form a "cross" frame, which is absolutely opposed in Muslim countries, especially such landmark buildings, which are of course not allowed. Fortunately, however, the Sheikh of Dubai has extraordinary courage and vision. His aim is to gain the impetus of sustainable development in Dubai, which requires a certain degree of open policy, so the original design scheme can be retained. Sailing Hotel belongs to the construction scheme of reclaiming land from the sea, which is not perfect today. At that time, of course, it was the most important problem to consider when designing! It is said that both Earth Island and Palm Island in Dubai have sunk to some extent. Nevertheless, the sailing hotel is perfectly presented to the world!
