The Middle East’s LARGEST INTERIOR DESIGN EVENT Held annually in Dubai – the business hub of the Middle East, INDEX has played a strategic role in shaping the design landscape over the last 26 years, and continues to be a beacon for interiors companies looking to enter the marketplace, strengthen their market share and be seen by the largest design community in the region. Covering every facet of design and product innovation for retail, residential, office, hospitality, education and healthcare projects, INDEX Design Series is a master exhibition that has evolved into 9 distinct industry-specific events, all under one roof, aiming to bring a 360 degree visitor experience to interior design.
// Dubai is moving in design as fast as it’s growing as a city. We’ve seen incredible changes in the past ten years. INDEX is a great place that gathers many suppliers from around the world. So it’s a great opportunity to meet different suppliers and people from the industry.
Marie Laurent, Owner, Marie Laurent Studio
