Featuring the works of 21 graphic designers, 13 spatial designers, five design managers, 10 multimedia designers, and one UI/UX designer, the publication includes a brief overview of their specializations and unique styles, as well as direct contact information.
Abdulaziz Al Jaziri, Deputy of CEO and COO of DFF, stressed the importance of providing young Emirati talents with capacity-building platforms to meet the growing need for creative ideas and innovative concepts that help advance the development of the creative landscape in Dubai and the wider UAE.
He added, "Creative design has emerged as a key driver for the growth of other future economic sectors. This trend reflects the importance of equipping young Emiratis with future skills and motivating them to leverage their creative abilities to design the future."
For her part, Amal Bin Shabib, CEO of Palmwood, said, "The guide aims to showcase creativity and innovation among UAE youth, and to highlight the vital importance of design skills in transforming ideas and visions into implementable projects."
