A Progressive Interdisciplinary
Architectural Design
Studio
Studio Baab is a progressive, interdisciplinary architectural design studio based in Dubai. The studio narrates space through a diverse, symbolic, and interactive vision: creating a dynamic experience through the study of materiality, form, and light.
The eclectic studio creates modern, timeless and contextual architecture, with a unique vision for each of its distinct projects, which include Aptitude at the Louvre Abu Dhabi and Ganache Chocolatier in Alserkal Avenue in Dubai.
Studio Baab draws inspiration from its name, Baab (door) which is an opening to a new area – a new experience. The story of Baab is the connection between inside and outside. An idea of a space that imminently reveals what is on the other side of the Baab. This philosophy is embodied in the spaces created by Studio Baab, where design evokes an emotional response.
The studio’s work is a conversation between craftsmanship and innovation – a gateway to what is possible.
‘’Our methodology is rooted in the foundations of a story. Curation of design is centered on dynamism and natural materiality, where we focus on the balance of functionality with aesthetic to create design projects that are fresh and minimal, yet eclectic’’
Ghida Chehab – Co-founder and Director.
