Doha, June 21 (QNA) – The Doha Design District (DDD), the creative hub at the heart of Msheireb Downtown Doha, has launched ‘Mada and Sada’: an immersive creative platform and spatial experience that traces an art work’s full journey from a first idea to its public life.
The launch marks the opening of an ongoing program of workshops, exhibitions, and cross-disciplinary collaborations.
Designed to serve emerging voices and established names alike, the platform sets out to dissolve the boundary between creative process and public engagement, by immersing audiences in the making of creativity.
Attended by designers, artists, and members of Doha’s wider creative community, the launch was opened with ‘Msheireb Symphony’ by internationally acclaimed Qatari composer and singer-songwriter Dana Alfardan.
Commenting on the platform, DDD Director Dana Kazic stated, “Through ‘Mada and Sada,’ we’re creating a platform where creatives can experiment, connect, and bring their ideas to life – contributing to a cultural ecosystem that resonates both locally and globally.”
A special session was held as part of the launch event led by the Creative Director of Pentagram; the internationally renowned design studio, Samar Maakaroun, who conceived the visual identity of ‘Mada and Sada.’
The session explored a brand identity’s creative philosophy and its role as a strategic tool capable of translating stories, values, and purpose into visual and verbal systems that shape how an organization is perceived and remembered. (QNA)
