Design Days Dubai 2014
Landscape series 2 by India Mahdavi (2013) | Material: Glazed ceramic with or without pure gold interior coating
The third edition of Design Days is back this week from 17th-21st March and will be held in the same venue as the past two years, in The Venue - Downtown Dubai, Mohammed bin Rashid Boulevard (formerly known as Emaar Boulevard, next to Burj Khalifa).
Design Days Dubai is the leading fair in the Middle East and South Asia dedicated to collectible and limited edition furniture and design objects.
The fair presents design from leading international designers and galleries alongside up and coming design from across the world. The fair also presents a strong non-commercial programme consisting of education, workshops, installations and live performances.
Here are some of the objects you will see at this year's Design Days Dubai.
Castor & Pollux by Giles Miller Studio in the Capsule Arts Booth
The first lighting installation by London-based designer Giles Miller Studio - thousands of pixels are arranged in series and 'programmed' in a binary-style orientation to show 3-dimensional shapes within shapes. Hypnotic effect generated using only the simplest of component composition.

If you are interested in unique designs for your home, then this fair is for you. I leave you with this video showing highlights from last year's edition of Design Days Dubai.
