Dubai Design Week announces the winner to assign “Doors 2025”
Dubai, September 30 / WAM / The “Doors” program, the main pillar of Dubai Design Week, announced the victory of the Bahraini “Marj” studio to assign the 2025 version through its project “Tales of the Law Edgers”, which is inspired by the local decoration and traditions to highlight the island of Nabih Saleh in Bahrain.
The work will be shown for the first time in the Dubai Design District, from 4 to 9 November in the eleventh edition of the Dubai Design Week.
The topic “in the details” is the main axis of the current version, as the participants called for exploring the decoration as a aesthetic language loaded with knowledge and symbolism, which through the ages affected the ages, textiles and visual culture in different societies.
The work of “Marj”, which was founded by the two architects Latifa Al -Khayyat and Maryam Al -Jameeri in Bahrain, reflects an educational research vision and creative practices in architecture and design.
The project documents the spatial story of the island of Nabih Saleh, which is located between the Tubli Al -Rutbah Reserve and the industrial zone in Sitra, through the installation of an embroidered tissue that embodies its plants, animals, and water environment.
The design was inspired by the traditional dressing dress, as the concepts of proportionality and rhythm were reformulated in a decorative language inspired by the marine nature.
Latifa Al -Khayyat and Maryam Al -Jameeri said that the work came as a fruit of meetings with the inhabitants of the island and the study of its natural environment to provide an optical narration that raises curiosity and calls for reflection.
They emphasized that the “marine edges tales” project represents an opportunity to highlight an environment that is extinct, and to maintain cultural and environmental memory.
The 2025 version comes to provide a qualitative shift in the “Doors” program, where an overwhelming experience is presented through one wing that focuses entirely on the topic of decoration as a storehouse of inherited knowledge and converting details into an integrated spatial experience.
