In the heart of Design Week, our exhibition stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of artisans who have inherited the mantle of tradition.

The Visual, Sound and Scent:
Each room is not merely a space but a sanctum of expression and cultural perpetuallity. embarking you on a multi-sensory product journey. a tableau of colors, textures, embodying the designer's vision. Every corner whispers melodies of tradition relating to the product’s soul and an aromatic symphony that evoke memories of heritage and craftsmanship.

The Craft:
The string connecting each designer, deeply rooted in their craft & the indispensable element for them all; the Warsha.

The Perception:
The Qahwet Divaz, a space that encapsulates elements from all our designers in a monumental typology, the space where every element harmonizes to create an immersive experience where visitors can engage with and feel the product in its vibrant context. With emblematic Qahwa chairs by Ahmed Helmy, Kahhal’s rich carpets, Hossama’s arabesque furniture , and Malaika’s artistic tableware, Qahwet Divaz evokes a set of sense of nostalgia and belonging.
