description
Qatar, a small peninsula in the Arabian Gulf, was and is a central hub of many trading and migration routes. A unique and diverse architectural style has developed here that is rich in colours and opulent details. The “Qatari style” is famous for its successful fusion of the different influences and the preservation of traditional character whilst at the same time progressing into the modern age. Ibrahim Mohamed Jaidah, an internationally famous architect from Qatar, presents in this lavishly illustrated publication a selection of outstanding examples of Qatari interior architecture.
