We joined the Anti Doomscroll Stroll Club in Dubai this weekend, a community led concept by @faizalr31 and @thekarak_

A quiet but compelling project that invites people to disconnect from social media and reconnect through physical exploration and social interaction.

Shaped by places from his own childhood in Satwa, the route moves through one of Dubai’s long established neighbourhoods, passing its architecture, local cafés and hidden spots, while supporting businesses that have been part of the area for up to 40 years.

The walk ends with a social gathering, bringing people together through shared experience and conversation.

Happening every Sunday.

Looking back at Downtown Design 2025 Doodle and the Gang, the Dubai-based studio founded by Egyptian sisters Mentalla and Asmaa Said, brought their signature blend of illustration, storytelling, and concept-driven design to the fair through a collaboration with Hands Carpets.

The collection titled ‘Postcards’, explored memory, movement, and place, translating cities that shaped the designers’ lives into a series of expressive, handcrafted rugs. Rooted in heritage craftsmanship and articulated through a contemporary design language.

Dubai Design Week’s annual Marketplace has always been rooted in a community of independent makers, small businesses and emerging brands.

Right now, many of them could use some extra support. We’ve created a directory of homegrown businesses on our website that have been part of our Marketplace over the years, making it easier to browse, discover and support them directly.

Over the next few days, we’ll be featuring some of these businesses in our story highlights. Take a moment to follow, engage with and support them.

If there are other small businesses you love, share them in the comments so more people can discover and support them too.

Visit the link in our bio to explore the directory.

Dubai Design Week is held in strategic partnership with @d3dubai a member of TECOM Group PJSC, and supported by @dubaiculture

يقام السوق “Marketplace” السنوي لأسبوع دبي للتصميم دائماً على أساس مجتمع من الحرفيين المستقلين، والشركات الصغيرة، والعلامات التجارية الناشئة.

وفي هذا الوقت، قد يحتاج الكثير منهم إلى دعم إضافي. لذلك قمنا بإنشاء دليل على موقعنا الإلكتروني يضم الشركات المحلية التي شاركت في السوق على مرّ السنوات، لتسهيل تصفحها واكتشافها ودعمها بشكل مباشر.

خلال الأيام القادمة، سنقوم بتسليط الضوء على عدد من هذه الشركات عبر خاصية “القصص المميزة” . خذوا لحظة لمتابعتهم والتفاعل معهم ودعمهم.

وإذا كانت هناك شركات صغيرة أخرى تحبونها، شاركونا بها في التعليقات ليتمكن المزيد من الناس من اكتشافها ودعمها أيضاً.

يمكنكم زيارة الرابط في البايو للاطلاع على الدليل.

يُقام أسبوع دبي للتصميم بشراكة استراتيجية مع @d3dubai ، عضو في مجموعة تيكوم ش.م.ع، وبدعم من @dubaiculture
