We’re more than art consultants. We’re curious creatives, authentic storytellers and more
Last Saturday, we visited ‘Cross Scripts’ at LAWRIE SHABIBI a summer exhibition where the lines between art, design, architecture, and craft are deliberately blurred.
The works unfold across intersecting visual languages, where geometry takes on ornamental qualities, functional objects shift into sculptural form, and familiar references are reworked through contemporary material approaches.
Spanning painting, sculpture, furniture, jewellery, and textiles, the exhibition draws subtle links between materials and methods, tracing how ideas of making travel across disciplines, histories, and geographies.
It’s an exhibition that reveals itself slowly, rewarding close looking as connections between works begin to surface over time.
On view this summer at Lawrie Shabibi Gallery Unit 21, Alserkal Avenue

We’re honoured to share that both Sofitel Hotel Riyadh and Kimpton Hotel Riyadh have been shortlisted for the CID Hospitality Awards!
At Sofitel Hotel Riyadh, the art narrative unfolds as a contemporary interpretation of cultural exchange where Saudi Arabia’s evolving creative identity meets the refinement, precision, and discipline of Parisian haute couture. The collection of artworks by Saudi and International artists reinterprets heritage as reinvention.
For Kimpton Hotel Riyadh, the collection takes inspiration from nature, rhythm, and atmosphere thus creating a warm, layered experience through organic forms, earthy tones, and thoughtfully integrated artworks throughout the space.
Thank you to for the recognition, and to every client, collaborator, artist, artisan, and team member behind the scenes who helped bring these projects to life.
Looking forward to the awards night and celebrating alongside so many inspiring names in the industry.
