Competing teams were given a designated space within the event to create their room set design, based upon a theme Dubai: A World of Possibility, A Lifetime of Stories. Visitors at the event were asked to vote for their favourite room set design during the first and second days of the Hotel Show, and the winning team was awarded at the Middle East Hospitality Awards.

Headed by a young team of designers from GAJ the Wander concept was conceived by junior designer Faizal Razak and interior designer Abdallah Mohamed Gad and supported by junior designer Hala Abdelbaky and intern Aya Faour with guidance from senior members of the team.

Their room design was contemporary, sleek and minimalistic with elements deigned to create a practical multifunctional experience. The materiality was hand-picked to reflect sustainability and durability throughout the space with use of recycled and low environmental impact materials. Flexibility and adaptability were some of the key influences throughout the design allowing users to create various possibilities functionally both inside and outside the space.

“The team for this initiative was chosen based on their passion for the project. It was an exciting challenge and we wanted to ensure the people working on it were going to see it as a platform to showcase their creativity and technical skills,” said Jacinda Raniolo, lead creative designer at Godwin Austen Johnson.

Internationally Recognized Transportation and Commercial Building Designer Now Leading Architectural Studio at Perkins+Will Dubai

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates—Morgan Fleming, an architect who managed the design of Kuwait International Airport’s Terminal 2 and the expansion of Amsterdam Airport Schiphol’s Pier A in The Netherlands, in addition to dozens of other large-scale projects in cities around the world, is now the design director of Perkins + Will’s Dubai studio.

In his new role, Fleming oversees the studio’s design teams and works directly with clients to realize their visions for corporate, commercial, civic, and cultural buildings, as well as transportation projects. Familiar with the culture and economic development goals of the Middle East and North Africa thanks to a decade spent working there, Fleming is both highly qualified for the position and passionate about it.

“I’ve always had a unique appreciation of, and affinity for, the design culture of this region. To me, it reflects the cherished balance of two distinct values: the preservation of history and cultural heritage, and the celebration of urban modernity in an increasingly global economy,” Fleming says. “I’m honored to be able to help our clients here maintain that important balance through intelligent design and architecture.”

Fleming’s personal design ethos complements that of Perkins+Will, too. Both are committed to architectural excellence through the design of places that support health, happiness, and well-being; reduce energy and water use; and protect and restore the natural environment.

“Morgan is a world-class architect in every way. He brings to our studio—and to our clients—just the right mix of international and regional experience, enthusiasm, and expertise,” says Richard Marshall, interim managing director of Perkins+Will’s Dubai studio. “From design to on-site construction management, he understands every aspect of our business, both here and abroad, and he has a proven track record of successful project outcomes.”

Other noteworthy projects in Fleming’s portfolio include The Spire in London, planned to be the tallest residential tower in Europe; the expansion of Terminal 2 at Heathrow International Airport, also in London; the Waldorf Astoria Hotel and Residences in San Francisco, California—part of the city’s new Oceanwide Center development; the HS1 Vision Plan for the California High-Speed Rail Authority in Sacramento, California; and the National Bank of Kuwait Headquarters Tower in Kuwait City, Kuwait.

Fleming is a member of the American Institute of Architects and is a registered Architect in the State of New York. He holds a Master of Science in Advanced Architectural Design from the Columbia University Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation, and a Bachelor of Architecture from the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago.
