The celebrated Synthesis Collection captures the perfect equilibrium between form and function through its fusion of teak and hand-woven WaProLace fibre.

Each piece reflects the meticulous craftsmanship for which Unopiù is renowned, balancing function with the grace of natural materials.
The Chelsea Collection introduces an oriental-inspired aesthetic through sculptural teak frames, low Japanese-style seating, and soft white cushions that embody serenity and warmth. Its extendable dining table and two-seater sofas are distinguished by compact volumes and clean lines, while the Chelsea Sunlounger showcases refined craftsmanship with adjustable back and leg rests, discreet wheels for easy movement, and the option of a plush cushion for elevated comfort. Completing this panorama of outdoor artistry, the Pevero Island stands as a masterpiece of circular design in smooth teak (Ø160 cm), paired with soft Nuvola-hued cushions to create an inviting centerpiece for terraces, gardens, and poolside retreats. Together, these pieces reflect Unopiù’s vision of outdoor living: spaces that balance modern design with the warmth of natural materials, where every detail evokes Italian refinement and timeless luxury.
A timeless icon of Unopiù style, the Ginger Director’s Chair, features a frame made of premium-quality teak with seat and backrest in Cotone cotton fabric, complemented by either a seat cushion or beige Canatex covers (a sustainable hemp-blend fabric composed of 70% PVC and 30% polyester). Exclusive, versatile, and designed for daily use, this chair is a true protagonist of any environment, capturing a personal interpretation of relaxation and refined simplicity.
Another highlight is the Salò Sofa, part of the prestigious Salò 2025 Collection. This piece symbolizes timeless elegance and advanced functionality in outdoor furniture. Inspired by the enchanting landscapes of northern Italy, particularly the captivating charm of Lake Garda, the collection combines modernist design with premium materials to create outdoor sofas and armchairs that stand out for their sophisticated style and extraordinary comfort.
With over four decades of design excellence, Unopiù continues to champion sustainable living through the use of ethically sourced teak, durable weather-resistant materials, and an eco-conscious production ethos. Its collections embody the meeting of tradition and innovation, an approach that resonates with Dubai’s commitment to design-led sustainability and creative excellence.
“Unopiù represents the meeting point between nature, design, and emotion,” said Mikdad Babhrawala, CEO of Western Furniture. “We are proud to bring this Italian outdoor legacy to Dubai Design Week, offering visitors a glimpse into how craftsmanship and creativity can transform everyday spaces into timeless sanctuaries.”

AARK DEVELOPERS APPOINT ONE BROKER GROUP AS EXCLUSIVE SALES PARTNER FOR KARL LAGERFELD BEACH RESIDENCES IN AL MARJAN ISLAND
One Broker Group (OBG), the UAE’s leading master brokerage and exclusive sales partner, has officially been appointed as the Exclusive Sales Partner in the UAE for AARK Developers’ latest landmark residential project on Al Marjan Island, branded by the globally renowned KARL LAGERFELD fashion house.
The signing ceremony marks a significant milestone for all three parties and reinforces Al Marjan Island’s growing position as a global destination for branded, lifestyle driven real estate investments.
Expressions of Interest are now open, with strong anticipated demand from regional and international buyers seeking design-led residences, lifestyle differentiation, and long-term value in one of the UAE’s fastest growing waterfront destinations.
While Al Marjan Island has previously welcomed branded residential developments, this project distinguishes itself as the first fully managed fashion-house-branded residence on the island, the project sets a new benchmark for professionally managed, design-led living, combining architectural integrity, operational excellence, and long-term investment value.
Strategically positioned with views toward the upcoming Wynn Resort, the development valued at over USD 1.4 billion, offers direct beach access, close proximity to the resort, and more than 50 lifestyle amenities. Anchored by the globally recognized KARL LAGERFELD brand and a curated residential experience, the project benefits from Al Marjan Island’s rapid growth, supporting strong long-term investment potential. Comprising over 600 sea-facing residences, the development represents a landmark waterfront investment of significant scale.
“This project represents an important evolution of KARL LAGERFELD’s residential portfolio in the region,” said Pier Paolo Righi, CEO, KARL LAGERFELD. “It reflects our commitment to translating Karl’s visionary design language into a breathtaking large-scale residential experience.”
Speaking on the partnership, Rahul Kumar Gupta, Chairman of AARK Developers commented: “This project represents a defining moment for Al Marjan Island. Partnering with the KARL LAGERFELD brand allows us to introduce a fully managed, fashion-house-branded residential concept that elevates both the lifestyle offering and investment proposition. Appointing One Broker Group as our exclusive sales partner ensures the project is positioned and executed with the level of market expertise and international reach this development deserves.”
Umar Bin Farooq, Founder & CEO, One Broker Group also expressed strong confidence in the project’s potential: “We are extremely proud to be appointed as the exclusive sales partner for this landmark development. The KARL LAGERFELD brings global credibility and lifestyle appeal, and together with Al Marjan Island’s evolution and proximity to Wynn Resort, this represents a highly compelling investment opportunity for both end-users and investors.

SUHOOR AT AL HALLAB: MIDNIGHT BITES AND GAME NIGHTS
Ramadan nights are meant to be unhurried, a time to gather, reconnect, and create memories. This holy month, Al Hallab invites guests to spend their suhoor doing just that, bringing together traditional games, shisha, and comforting Lebanese food in a setting designed for friends and family to linger long into the night.
From 8 pm onwards throughout Ramadan, guests can head to Al Hallab Garhoud, where backgammon boards, jakaru, and cards set the scene for friendly competition, laughter, and shared moments. Whether it’s a close-knit family gathering or a late-night catch-up with friends, the experience encourages guests to slow down, play together, and enjoy Ramadan nights the traditional way.
Food plays a central role in the suhoor experience, with a menu rooted in Lebanese classics and freshly baked favourites. Guests can share plates of hummus, foul, labneh, halloumi, and eggs, alongside beloved dishes such as Lahme Baajine Traboulsi and Mfaraket Batata with eggs. Freshly prepared manakeesh are perfect for sharing around the table, while Al Hallab’s iconic Kunafa adds a sweet ending to the night.
Game Nights are available exclusively at Al Hallab Garhoud, while the suhoor menu can be enjoyed across all Al Hallab locations throughout Ramadan.
More than just a meal, Al Hallab’s suhoor is about spending meaningful time together playing, eating, talking, and making Ramadan memories that last beyond the month.
