Design fi rm 4SPACE adds new architectural division to offering 4SPACE is on the rise by expanding with an architecture division. The Dubai-headquartered design fi rm was founded 15 years ago by business partners Firas Alsahin and Amjad Hourieh. Now architect Ehab Alhariri is joining them as principal architect, to shape the new architectural division. His portfolio of regional projects includes work for Emaar, Dubai Properties, and Wasl. Alhariri was also the lead architect for the largest Hampton by Hilton Hotel in the world, close to Dubai's International Airport. Ehab Alhariri says Alsahin and Hourieh have inspired him since he was an architectural student. "I worked with them when I was just a second year architecture student back in 2003. They are some of the most creative interior designers I've ever met, so it is a no-brainer to join forces with them knowing that we can create something special." Co-founder Alsahin adds: "Due to the demand for unique architecture in a city like Dubai and our evolution, we decided that we want to leave a mark on the iconic architectural scene." Putting the fi nishing touches to One Deira Firas Alsahin, Amjad Hourieh and Ehab Alhariri from 4SPACEDesign news commercialinteriordesign.com September 2021 12 The UAE mission to Mars captured headlines in February 2021, as the country made history by launching Al Amal or The Hope Probe. This fi rst for the Arab world sparked creativity at boutique design fi rm Design Matter in the shape of a bespoke rug named 'Hala, Mareehk' or 'Hello, Mars.' Motivated by the UAE's feat, the Design Matter team took it upon themselves to create something that refl ected the pride, ambition, and of course, hope of a country. Showing the orbiting probe's wing as it traverses through outer space, in the context of hope, a conscious effort has been made to make the rug sustainable yet luxurious, with approximately 15 percent of recycled PET yarns, 25 percent viscose and 60 percent wool. After being handmade by a reputed production house in India, the rug will debut under the UAE Designers Exhibition for Dubai Design Week 2021. Founded in 2017, Dubai–headquartered Design Matter is eager to make its mark on the emirate's design scene, with diverse projects ranging from healthcare, residential and retail, to public spaces, landscaping, offi ces and product design. Design Matter creates unique rug to celebrate UAE Mars mission Hala Mareehk or Hello Mars will launch at Dubai Design Week 2021 Its founder is Fabidha Safar Rahman, an interior design graduate from San Jose State, California, who was brought up in Dubai and moved back to the emirate from San Francisco 10 years ago. Speaking about the design process behind 'Hala, Mareehk,' Fabidha says: "It all started with the idea of hope. We were so inspired by the feat, we looked for a way to channelise all those feelings into design. A bout of furious brainstorming and sketching resulted in 'the series of hope' and starting off the collection with this rug as the fi rst product."
