Downtown Editions - Dubai 2024

Writer's picture: MireiMirei

In November 2024, I had the incredible opportunity to present my work at Downtown Editions, the boutique showcase of Downtown Design Dubai. Known for spotlighting limited-edition and bespoke designs by individual designers, collectives, and studios from around the world, Downtown Editions is a platform that celebrates creativity and connects it with visibility and commercial opportunity. With its emphasis on high-end manufactured furniture and handmade limited-edition objects, the event unites trade professionals and consumers, fostering collaborations and inspiring new design possibilities.


It was an honor to introduce our piece, Laminaria, to this vibrant design community and to engage with an audience that values innovation and tradition in equal measure.




Laminaria represents the seamless blend of nature and artistry. Inspired by the flowing, organic forms of underwater kelp forests, the piece captures the movement and grace of the ocean, reimagined through banaca fabric and contemporary design techniques. Every curve and fold tells a story of resilience and beauty, mirroring the ethos of the materials and the craftsmanship behind it.


This showcase would not have been possible without the support of Superbia Domus, whose collaboration was instrumental in bringing Laminaria to life on this global stage. I extend my heartfelt thanks to Caterina and her team for their trust and partnership, which made this experience truly remarkable.
