Living Rooms celebrates the central role of family life and hospitality across the Middle East and North Africa, focusing on the communal spaces where connections are made, traditions upheld, and stories shared.
Through a curated collection of archival and contemporary photography, the book explores the rich interplay of design, culture, and identity reflected in these spaces. From intricate textiles and low seating arrangements to gold accents and elaborate décor, these rooms embody the pride and character of the families who inhabit them.
