DUBAI GETS COOL

Five Green is a concept store located in Dubai that incorporates urban lifestyle brands with contemporary arts exhibitions. The store stocks brands from Europe, the US and Canada (including XLarge, BoxFresh, Upper Playground).

The aspect I find most interesting about Five Green is that it is trying to showcase the new crop of creatives coming out of Dubai such as Chadiyo, Mona Ibrahim and Saadia Zahid. Dubai found notoriety for its large shopping malls and jewellery stores, I think it's great to see something new in this city that is growing at an astounding rate.

Exhibitions to be held at the store will include Charles & Ray Eames retrospective, supported by Vitra and Lomographic exhibitions and events.
