Harbor – Issue 36

Published November/December 2018

A note from our Editor-in-Chief Fouz Al-Sabah

We’ve sailed through an exciting year and have reached safe harbor. In this issue, we highlight creatives who are diving deep into their passions and exploring uncharted territories in their careers.

Our cover star Aseel Al-Yaqoub explains how she blends Kuwaiti culture, nostalgia,  and social commentary to create artworks that strike a conversation.

We talk to innovation strategist Abdulmohsen Alduwaisan about the process behind his latest innovative product Tre. While Beirut-based Nawbar sisters explain how they’re reinventing the legacy of their family business, and footwear designer Najeeba Hayat discusses how she’s trying to navigate her way through the fashion industry.

In the photo essay ‘Honey, I’m Home’ (Page xx), Shaima Al-Tamimi showcases how honey, an irreplaceable symbol of home, makes it way from Hadramout to the Yemeni community in the UAE.
