2026 - Restaurant & Bar Design Awards / UNBOUND
UNBOUND: That's the word @verhaalstudio and @kumo.uae chose to describe the project, Kumo (Dubai, UAE).
Every design starts as an idea, a word, a feeling, a sketch, before it becomes a space. TYPE, our theme for 2026, celebrates that starting point.

An immersive café filled with wonder — where art, design and imagination come together to create something that touches the soul.
We’re incredibly humbled to see @itsallother shortlisted by @dezeenawards_ , and grateful to the design community for recognising the love, thought and creativity we pour into what we do.
A very special moment for us.

Designed by @verhaalstudio around the overlooked origins of coffee, Cherry House @cherryhouse takes its name from the coffee cherry, the vibrant red fruit that protects the bean before it is roasted, brewed and served.
Here, the entire process is placed on display. Beans travel overhead through transparent pipes linking the roastery to the café floor, while baking, roasting and brewing unfold in full view.
The interiors draw their rich cherry-red palette directly from the fruit itself, complemented by warm metallic accents and tactile materials that reference the craft of both the roastery and the bakery.
Rather than adopting the raw industrial language often associated with specialty coffee spaces, Cherry House introduces a quieter sense of refinement, where every detail has been carefully edited to celebrate the beauty of making.

For our Design Talks series, we sat down with Neydine and Dewald and asked a simple question: what is Verhaal in one sentence?
It sparked a wider conversation on their design philosophy and the elements that shape their work — from childhood memories to the objects they return to, again and again.
This is Verhaal, by Marie Claire Maison.

@SceneHome: In Dubai’s Al Safa district, behind a discreet façade, a chromatic duet is underway. A deep, architectural blue holds the room in a steady embrace. Countering it are strokes of lipstick red vacillating with theatrical heat.
Conceived by The Food District and designed by Verhaal Studio, OTHER, a new design-led restaurant operates as a canvas where design performs in curated tension; a stage set mid-scene— charged, intentional, and alive with possibility. Co-founder Neydine Bak describes it as “a space where art emerges as an intrinsic layer of the architecture itself.”
The narrative is anchored by a bold colour strategy, inspired by the disruptive palette of a 2020 Balenciaga runway. “Architectural blue forms a controlled, almost severe canvas, acting as a stage set,” Bak explains, “while lipstick red is introduced as heat, interruption and glamour.” The contrast of colours exists in a screen-played dialogue. The blue, a deep, enveloping tone on the main wall, grounds the space. The red, appearing in velvet cushions, artful accents, and flashes of trim, punctuates it with rhythm, surprise and playfulness.
Stepping inside the space, the spatial plot unfolds into a narrow plan, bordered by full-height glazing, grounded by a single, continuous wall. The wall acts as both anchor and gallery, a saturated blue plane against which the drama of the interior is staged. The layout is a series of curated sight-lines encouraging discovery. Movement through the space becomes an unveiling; a sculptural object here, an intimate seating nook there.
