      The MAIA Collection’s Founder and Managing Director, Shadi Moazami, talks to Emirates Woman about her office space and how it reflects her brand.
      How long have you been in this space?
      We moved into our new space in mid-July.
      Have you custom-built any bespoke pieces?
      We worked with H2R Design (an interior design firm based in Dubai and a client of ours) to create an entirely new design for the space. Inspired by the luxury hotels and destinations we work with, we designed and curated every single item – from the custom-made desks (complete with cable management and individual cubbies), the bouclé sofa, the travertine marble flooring, the minimalist and sustainable lighting, the shelves, and pantry; every single detail and material has been well thought of – keeping the comfort and happiness of our team in mind. We also wanted to embrace the gorgeous view and light in the office, and so decided to let the space do most of the talking and have kept furniture and clutter to a minimum.
      How do you think the interior buys reflect you and your brand?
      MAIA is a boutique luxury PR agency, focused on hospitality, travel and design. We are never the loudest in the room, but we always aim to be the most collected, calm, and refined, allowing our quality work, integrity, and years of experience to come through. The same goes for our new space. We’ve designed a calm and clean sanctuary that allows for more creativity, self-assured energy as well as strategic counsel to come to life; something our incredible clients deserve in abundance.
      Describe your taste in three words.
      Minimalist, contemporary and refined.

      “Dopamine decor” is a term used to describe interior design choices that aim to stimulate the release of dopamine, a neurotransmitter associated with pleasure and reward, by creating a visually appealing and emotionally uplifting environment.
      Here are some ways to incorporate dopamine decor:
      Color Palette: Choose colors that evoke positive emotions. Vibrant hues like blues, greens, and yellows can create a cheerful atmosphere.
      Natural Light: Maximize natural light to improve mood. Open curtains, use sheer fabrics, and position mirrors strategically to reflect light.
      Texture and Comfort: Include plush cushions, soft rugs, and cozy blankets to create a sense of comfort and relaxation.
      Art and Creativity: Hang artwork that resonates with you emotionally. Abstract, colorful, and visually stimulating pieces can elicit positive feelings.
      Sensory Elements: Use scented candles, essential oils, or incense to engage the sense of smell and create a soothing environment.
      Organized Space: A clutter-free environment can reduce stress and anxiety. Proper organization promotes a sense of control and calmness.
      Positive Affirmations: Decorate with positive quotes, affirmations, or motivational artwork to uplift your spirits.
      Functional Design: Arrange furniture in a way that promotes easy movement and functionality. A well-organized space can reduce frustration and increase efficiency.
      Variety and Novelty: Incorporate elements that capture your attention and pique your curiosity. Unique or unexpected decor pieces can trigger feelings of excitement.
      10 editor-approved dopamine-inducing decor items you can add to your cart

      Prada Caffè opens at Harrods in London

      On 31st march, 2023, the Italian luxury brand opened Prada Caffè at Harrods in London – unlocking a whole new dimension under the fashion house.
      The space visually boasts of Prada’s signature hallmarks – from the decor and menu to the tableware and atmosphere – every element has the brand’s DNA displayed in a distinctive way.
      Once you enter the luxe Prada Caffè, the walls, ceilings, velvet-upholstered sofas and armchairs are all synonymously painted in the iconic Prada green.  The floors replicate the black-and-white chequered patterned, referenced from the historic Prada boutique on Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II in Milan.
      The floral bas-reliefs on the walls will remind you of the many Prada flagship stores across the world. Original tableware ranging from pale-blue Japanese porcelain with a contrasting double black line, inspired by ancient Celadon potter  to blown-glass crystal glassware, including the Triangle series with its quintessentially Prada triangular pattern, can be found resting on the goregous furniture of this new cafe.
      Providing a modern spin on traditional Italian, the Prada Caffè  serves a wide range of dishes between breakfast and evening cocktails. From sandwiches and risotto sitting alongside buffalo mozzarella to salmon and crab dishes, along with spritz – and negroni-based aperitifs complementing the list of signature cocktails.
      Pastries are the focal point at this gourmet spot – showcased both on the central counter and the wall behind. The wide selection includes fine patisserie products, paired with expert craftsmanship that demonstrates modern techniques and classic ingredients with contemporary flavours.
      The Prada Caffè will be open from 31st March 2023 to 7 January 2024. From 9 AM to 9 PM Monday to Saturday and from 12 PM to 6 PM on Sunday, with an entrance on Hans Road. It will soon be joined by an outdoor stall, which will offer Londoners a delicious range of ice creams.
