Art and design share the same purpose: to create emotion, inspire reflection, and foster meaningful connections. For Art Dubai 2026, HMA Living by Al Shamsi was proud to furnish two of the fair’s most intimate and evocative spaces: the ARM Holding VIP Lounge and the Poetry Room.
In the VIP Lounge, a curated selection of Italian furniture created a refined and welcoming environment where collectors, curators, and guests could pause and engage in conversation.
In the Poetry Room, visitors were invited to receive bespoke poems written live by participating poets. HMA Living provided the desks where these encounters took place, along with lounge settings designed for reading, contemplation, and quiet inspiration.
This collaboration reflects HMA Living’s ongoing dialogue with the world of art. Earlier this year, the company launched the HMA Art Collection at DIFC Sculpture Park, reinforcing its commitment to integrating collectible art and design into everyday living.
At HMA Living, our vision is captured in one simple statement: When Homes Become Art.
Art Dubai 2026 was a natural extension of this philosophy, an opportunity to create spaces that not only host cultural experiences, but become part of them.
Museum of Digital Art reflects Dubai’s long-term vision of culture as a catalyst for innovation, knowledge, and human connection. As the first institution of its kind in the region, it marks a significant milestone in the evolution of Dubai’s cultural ecosystem and reinforces our commitment to shaping a future where creativity and technology converge to expand the boundaries of artistic expression. The emirate’s cultural journey has been defined by openness, ambition, and a belief in the transformative power of ideas, and today, we continue to build on that legacy by creating institutions and platforms that empower artists, nurture emerging talent, and create new pathways for cultural participation and exchange. In an increasingly digital world, museums must not only preserve heritage but also reimagine how culture is accessed and shared across generations and geographies.”
– Her Highness Sheikha Latifa bint Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Chairperson of Dubai Culture and Arts Authority (Dubai Culture)
