Friday, August 05, 2011. UAE Chronicled; A street's Tale {St. 24}. One of the other projects that I was working on before the summer back in May, was a graphically designed set of notebooks aimed to revisualise the country's urban sprawls. That's right, going to back my design roots, I collaborated with my colleague Bushra on creating a collection of products under the series ' UAE Chronicled'. The process of it all, hours under the scorching sun taking snapshots of every single detail in and around Satwa.

Monday, February 13, 2012. I just came across this lovely set of calendars - it's very hard to find good arabic typography design, but I can definitely say this set of posters will keep me satisfied for about hmm 10 more months. Representing the main character for each month in a contemporary arabic design, Mohamed Labib illustrated them with an added humour of original egyptian slang that reflects their monthly insights (excuse my literal egyptian arabic - english translation, it sounds a bit off).

Wednesday, January 25, 2012. Wait Did I actually stop procrastinating and finally do something I've been planning and wishing and listing to do for like ever. Yay me! I'm definitely liking the new year me. On the 14th of January, outdoor movie night was officially scheduled in. And for once the weather tolerated with us, we had a cool 20 °C. We even ended up watching something else other than our first choice (we were going for a french movie night but then turned into a romcom). Hii I am a graphic desig...

Sunday, May 13, 2012. When it comes to Arabic type, very few designers can master it. Now arabic type fused with furniture and that is one gold mine of an idea. Kashida. Has effortlessly designed a product and furniture line inspired entirely by Arabic letterforms. Embracing the various calligraphic and typographic styles of Arabic, these products are definitely making their way onto my summer wishlist. Pop coloured coasters making up the 29 letters of the Arabic alphabet. One 'noon' please.

Sunday, December 30, 2012. Are we just 2 days away from 2013? Yes I decided to just pop in ever so nonchalantly (my new word this year). After months of hibernating. It's been a crazy year, this 2012. So what better way to start the new year with some fun and party straws! Oh typography, you never fail to make me happy. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Wednesday, March 21, 2012. A to the R to the T. It's March Art Madness in Dubai right now, everything art and design has been crammed in these two weeks; panel talks, exhibitions, workshops, exhibitions, film screenings, pop-up stores it's all here. Today, I've been drooling over this pop-up shop in Beirut, by arabic kitsch Lebanese designer Rana Salam. The pink wall pattern, the Pepsi Cola stools, the blue 'Share' 49' pillow. I want it all! A little bit of retro cushioned posters won't hurt my studio.

Monday, May 13, 2013. Noella designs} klayya bakery. What's on the menu; a handful of balaleet, a springle of nakhai with a cup of lgaimat dumplings to sweeten things up. The whole design of the place was modern mixed with a bit of traditional, lots of bright colours fused with traditional wooden tables, and metal! Served in steel palette looking pans, the presentation of the food was just delicious! One karak klayya please. The biscuits that started it all. with a side of dates omelette. Hii I am a grap...
