Our Gulf chapter will deliver a dynamic, multifaceted exhibition and event series during Dubai Design Week at D3 Building 6 Atrium, continuing the momentum of our previous successful showcases in the same venue. This year's exhibition will include our Middle East Awards, FA Student Awards, and Chartered Practices projects which outlines a comprehensive programme aligned with the UAE’s 2025 'Year of community' celebrating architectural excellence and fostering professional and student engagement across the region.
