17 June 2025 – What a magical evening.
First, thank you to
@commercial_interior_design Commercial Interior Design for arranging such a spectacular night, and thank you to judges and especially to
@zenbahar_ Bahar for curating it so beautifully. It was a celebration to remember.
10 nominations. 3 awards. I’m still speechless — emotional, overwhelmed, and deeply grateful.
After 5 years of non-stop hustle, learning, and pushing boundaries, this recognition means everything. And to celebrate it with people I deeply respect and admire made it all the more powerful.
1. Highly Commended – Hospitality Designer of the Year Even more meaningful because my mentor Sejal Patel— someone who’s guided and inspired me over the years — won Design of the Year. To stand even remotely close to your footsteps is something I’ll never take for granted.
2. Winner – Best Use of Lighting : Revolver (with
@studionlighting LamaArouri) This was pure magic. Lama, working with you has been one of the most creatively fulfilling experiences — when collaboration is built on real connection, the outcome shines (literally!). You lit the room and my heart.
3. Winner – Best Use of Art: Maison Dali With the one and only Sam Kaufman Saliba
@artpaintinglab We both know how close this project was to our hearts. This win is a testament to what happens when passion meets purpose. Together, we created something truly meaningful — and magical. Thank you to
