Dubai Design Week x Oorjaa

Step into Oorjaa. By Nature at Dubai Design Week—a curated blend of our most captivating lighting pieces inspired by the beauty and resilience of nature. Each Oorjaa design embraces the fluidity of organic shapes, drawing from the strength and grace of natural forms. Our use of materials is integral to the design process: we incorporate paper made from banana plant fiber, invasive species like lantana, repurposed waste fishing nets sourced directly from fishermen, and copper wire from industrial waste. These elements are transformed into unique, sculptural lights that bring the natural world indoors. The collection reflects a commitment to harmonizing art, function, and environmental responsibility, creating lighting that connects with nature and enriches every space it touches.

Aurelia

Like the Jellyfish, with their translucent, fluid forms moving in an almost hypnotic rhythm, Aurelia tries to capture the graceful essence of these marine wonders. Incorporating waste fishing nets and waste copper wire into our paper making process, we've attempted to capture the fluid translucency of these fragile sea creatures.

A light sculpture that has been handcrafted from handmade banana fibre paper and lantana to represent the relationship between light & matter. At Oorjaa we champion the use of sustainable materials and try to minimise waste in all the lights we create. Banana plants have a short lifecycle with each tree living only as long as it can produce fruit but also regenerate with the new plants that sprout. The availability of banana fibre, an agro waste material, is therefore found in abundance.
