Inside Dubai’s Push for Sustainable Design

About this video

In Dubai 🇦🇪 , designer Chinara Darwish is giving plastic waste a second life. From old road barriers to worn-out marine buoys, she melts and remakes discarded materials into bold furniture and everyday items. What once was industrial scrap now becomes colorful design, a process that turns pollution into possibility, and waste into something worth keeping.
