We have 6 instead of 3 winning entries. Amazing work... We are very happy with the results :)
The winners come from Yemen, Saudi, Morocco, Iraq, and Lebanon. We had submissions from Japan to the States and the areas in the middle. Most entries from Lebanon, second from Iran.
We are preparing a special section on our website for the winning works, the jury session, and the Award ceremony in Dubai. I’ll post the link as soon as it goes online.
There are a few things that came out of the competition, some interesting observations, and we are currently thinking on how to show that. The dominant styles present, and the direction that the entries took, all fortell of new trends that are solid in base but very forward looking. A style that is considered archaic by many is going through a fully blown come back... Very interesting times...
