This year, The Fluxx was proud to be an official media partner, exploring the exhibitions, talks, and installations that continue to shape Dubai’s position as a leading creative hub in the Middle East.

This year’s edition celebrated the power of materiality, storytelling, and cultural exchange. From furniture and lighting to bespoke textiles and artisan finishes, every stand told a story of process, people, and place. The fair’s outdoor installations and experiential showcases also brought design to life, transforming d3 into a vibrant space of creativity and collaboration.
