Thats not to say that I dont like the design because admittedly, I do like like it (especially the glass that is shaped like diamonds and the shade of pink is a nice touch too) but I feel that with the money they have, they could have made it much nicer than this.

They're not exactly known for their good taste in decoration and architecture. It's just "we have a lot of money so let's show it!". Very difficult for any designer, architect, etc to make something classy here. PS: I truly admire Hayon, but i understand there is a lot of money for him here and the Dubai people are the client. He's gotta play by their rules. Oh, well…it’s Dubai you know? They’re not exactly known for their good taste in decoration and architecture. It’s just “we have a lot of money so let’s show it!”.

Shortly after this Hayon became involved in Dubai with the store. Coincidence? Not likely. I do like a lot of Hayon's work as a designer and I love his decorative paintings. But his architectural adventure in Dubai does not look especially promising. Guess it only proves that architect training is not just for show...
