In a celebration of cultural heritage and a global perspective, a triumvirate of creativity converges in the Dreamweaver collaboration for Nalbandian. Architect, author, and academic Karim Nader, joins forces with Fadi Yachoui, the multifaceted mind and Serge Nalbandian, the bespoke carpet creator. Together, they craft an immersive and motion-sensitive installation that transcends the ordinary – welcome to Dreamweaver, unveiled at DDW 2022.

Dreamweaver is not just an installation; it's an invitation to dream. Karim Nader's architectural prowess breathes life into a seamless floor-to-wall carpet-tapestry, a canvas woven from textures, materials, and shades of white sourced from Serge Nalbandian's bespoke collection. This carpet becomes a dynamic projection space for showcasing Nalbandian's finest designs, a visual symphony of creativity and craftsmanship.

In this ethereal universe, Fadi Yachoui's touch is evident through his cloud-like, double-sided couches from Atelier L’inconnu. Among them is his recent creation, CACTI, unveiled at Milan Design Week 2022. These organic shapes create the illusion of an inviting lounge in the sky, a space where visitors can dream up any design, and Nalbandian will turn it into reality.

Dreamweaver is more than an installation; it's an ode to Nalbandian's legacy. Since 1792, they have been weaving dreams for the world, and this collaboration pays homage to that rich history. It's an open invitation for the world to be part of a future filled with infinite possibilities.

Let's meet the minds behind this dreamlike creation:

Representing the fusion of tradition and innovation, the Nalbandian X Nomadk Pavilion at Downtown Design showcased the harmonious convergence of artistry and technology, where craftsmanship intertwined with data. This collaboration challenges visitors to question what is possible when the realms of data and design collide.

Unveiling Digital Footprints Through Carpets:

In a groundbreaking project in collaboration with Nomadk , our digital footprints find expression through carpets. By harnessing the data of mouse movements and clicks, Nomadk transforms these digital actions into captivating line and dot-based carpet designs. Meticulously hand-tufted, these artistic expressions, born from our digital behavior, breathe life into the virtual world, creating a tangible bridge between the digital and the tangible.

In the vibrant cityscape of Dubai, our recent Business Breakfast unfolded as a triumph, a tapestry of success woven through meaningful connections and collaborative dialogues.

The event was more than a gathering; it was a remarkable opportunity to unite with experts, fostering discussions that hold the potential for groundbreaking collaborations.

As the aroma of freshly brewed coffee mingled with the spirit of entrepreneurship, our space transformed into a hub of intellectual exchange and professional camaraderie.

As Serge Nalbandian perfectly explains “ It was not just a gathering; it was a convergence of minds, an arena where conversations transcended the ordinary, and where partnerships were nurtured with each shared moment.”
