Finding History in the Future_Aisha al Sowaidi
Change and development over an extremely fast period of time in Qatar have shifted the atmospheric sense of the country. The city that was once haptic has become a city of exteriority. I aim in this paper to explore this change and temporality. Through experimentations with materials, human behaviors, and senses, I created a series of projects that deal with memory, nostalgia, and traces of time.

Olfactory memory_ Grandmachair, Single Table
Beyond the stated function_Esra Kazem
design project showcases obstacles that the Qatari culture and society impose on their female youth, hindering them from becoming independent individuals. It critiques the society and its social pressures to raise awareness, make people think, challenge narrow assumptions and perceptions, uncover those assumptions, provoke action, bring the issue to the youth and society in a seemingly humorous way. Through the design of appealing, high quality, and functionally viable everyday objects, the project highlights youths’ individuality. This quality contributes to youths’ becoming the pillars that Qatar will need to depend on to achieve its vision 2030. It is important to note that the goal is not to devalue culture and tradition, but to call to consciousness those cultural and societal practices that hinder the development of young Qatari individuals and their critical thinking abilities.
