Tanween is Tashkeel’s professional development programme, which is open to emerging designers, makers and artisans living and working in the UAE. Each year, three to four practitioners are selected to embark on a journey of experimentation and learning that includes the development of products, from concept to completion, that contribute towards defining a UAE design aesthetic. The final products become part of the Tanween Collection and are revealed to the world at Dubai Design Week. Tashkeel then continues its support by providing funding, marketing and sales resources for a limited-edition product line, enabling each designer to gain entry into the market.
Tanween’s three artists and products of 2019 edition will be at Downtown Design 2019, d3 Waterfront, Stand E31 until the show closes at 9pm today.
