Residencies

Our residency program aims to cultivate local and regional designers through mentorship, collaboration with artisans, funding, studio access, and opportunities to exhibit at design Biennales and platforms. The various residencies at Liwan contribute to designers’ creative growth, with the intention of focusing on local production from concept to final product. We encourage designers and craftspeople to rely on locally sourced materials, production, and prototyping facilities and to be part of the growing design ecosystem that Qatar is developing.
