Dezeen has teamed up with Design Doha to make a video reel documenting Arab Design Now, the central exhibition of the Qatari capital's newly launched biennial.
The exhibition takes place at creative hub M7, and gathers a range of work from 74 designers and collectives from around the Middle East and North Africa.

Design Doha was launched by art and culture institution Qatar Museums in February
Its main exhibition Arab Design Now features works that draw from the region's arts heritage and natural resources, spanning installations at an architectural scale, furniture, ornaments and graphic design.
Amongst the designs highlighted in the reel is a prototype for pendant lighting wrapped in natural luffa sponge by Palestinian designer Samer Selbak.

Also spotlighted is a meditative installation by Jordanian architect Hiba Shahzada that frames a reflective pool with four wood columns down which water trickles, all topped with a geometric canopy.
The reel also documents an installation by Paris-based architecture practice New South, which designed a set of stools that can be arranged and adapted by users to form a sacred space anywhere.
