Meet the Emirati sisters revolutionising interior designs with a ‘Quick Fix’ concept in Dubai



Dubai: When two Emirati sisters, who are also mothers, left their corporate jobs and started carrying boxes and furniture to launch their dream project—an interior designing studio—in 2016, they surprised many.

Today, Hend and Hamda Al Abbar are busy transforming UAE homes, bringing them closer to heritage, especially through their homegrown studio’s ‘Quick Fix’ service—a three-day home makeover concept that grew in popularity since its launch during the COVID-19 movement restrictions.

The co-founders of ‘Dress My Room’ have now evolved to collaborate with artists and brands, offering collections inspired by the UAE culture and heritage in a contemporary manner. Last week, the siblings—the eldest and the youngest of four sisters—launched a special collection of designs and decors.

Inspired by the environment and the culture of the UAE, the collection has been named ‘1971’, after the year the emirates united to form our proud nation, they told Gulf News while sharing their story and the details of the new collections.
