As part of the visual identity of the Kingdom of Bahrain Pavilion at Expo Dubai, a special bilingual publication was designed by Clara Sancho and Pascal Zoghbi, titled Density Weaves Opportunities.

The book features architectural drawings, a series of photographs by Maxime Delvaux and essays by the Kingdom of Bahrain Pavilion commissioners and architect Christian Kerez in Arabic and English. The design of the book resembles through its materiality the architecture and the pavilion theme.

29LT Zawi is a customisation of the 29LT Baseet typeface from the 29LT typeface catalogue, first used for the pavilion and later published on the 29LT site as a companion to 29LT Baseet.

The publication is a softcover OTA-bound book of 80 pages, with a dust jacket made of dark grey linen. The title is hot-stamped on both sides. 64 pages with full bleed photographs are printed on coated glossy paper in the middle sections and Arabic and English texts appear on uncoated off-white paper.
