Dubai Home Festival (DHF) will showcase the interior design talents, boutique firms and home and outdoor specialists that have helped to put the city on the world’s creative, homeware and retail map.

Based at Dubai Design District (d3), renowned global, regional and local brands are pushing the boundaries of what indoor and outdoor spaces can offer. The stylish and innovative landmark district will inspire people to see creativity from a new perspective by giving them the opportunity to rethink the regular and change their home perspective.

During DHF, which runs until 30 September, luxury and boutique homeware and furniture retailers located at d3 will offer shoppers from 25 to 40 per cent on selected items. Plus, shoppers who spend AED2,000 or more will get the chance to win a d3 gift voucher worth AED25,000. This can be redeemed at any of the participating d3 homeware stores or showrooms.

As the city’s buzzing creative hub, d3 will welcome residents and visitors in search of something different, special and one-of-a-kind to help revamp their home or garden and inspire their next big makeover project.

The d3 stores taking part in DHF include Sensi, which caters to the creative home design needs of discerning individuals, innovative homeware brand Silsal, upholstery specialists Living Divani and interior design firm Nakkash. Visitors can also explore German lighting company Occhio, carpet makers Hands, European furniture outlet Be4 Design and leading ceramic tile company Marazzi, among others.
