The 2016 design exhibition takes place at the Amman Electricity Hangar in Ras El Ain. Designed and curated by architect Sahel Al Hiyari, the exhibition showcases original work by local and regional designers. The exhibition focuses on ideas of locality, challenging our understanding of design and its ability to push the boundaries of material, scale, form and function.
Architects Yazeed Obeid and Jeries El Ali are developing a new installation for Amman Design Week entitled 'The Minaret'.
This installation was designed by Obeid and El Ali as an appropriation of the typical steel minarets found in the countryside of Jordan, conceived by blacksmiths out of necessity and lack of resources. The installation proposes a minaret with a playful element, where the shape of the minaret appears and disappears according to the position of the viewer.
It is currently for sale. If you are interested in purchasing it, please contact info@ammandesignweek.com.
