(PRE-ORDER) Nawa - Tent

** This product is made-to-order and may take 3-4 weeks to deliver **

"Nawa" tent is a joyful and safe haven for children to come together, play, and dream. The name of a date kernel is inspired by the concept of seeds in general that sprout and blossom into a source of nourishment and vitality. Like a conventional tent, “Nawa” is supported by two flanking panels, each made of intricate patterns of traditional reed crafts lined with softer fabric and folds, creating a place for children to contemplate their intimate space and imagine bigger worlds.

Dimensions: 110 x 130 x 145 cm

This product has been developed in collaboration with CLUTSER in BICEIA project, Bridging Inequality through Creative Economy in Informal Areas. (BICEIA) is a project that integrates the designers and manufacturers in Cairo’s formal economy with artisans in informal areas. This builds upon CLUSTER’s research and social design work, along with its existing network with local communities, proposing a framework that ensures fair compensation for independent craftspeople. The project, based on a community of craftspeople in Fayoum, began with a series of introductory and capacity-building workshops, before undertaking a collaborative design process between high-end designers and local artisans, drafting prototypes and iterations to eventually reach the final pieces displayed in the Tajreeda exhibition. BICEIA fosters collaborations that develop skills, market products, and connect creative talent to income opportunities in broader distribution networks.
