Meet Nada Debs, the Founder & Creative Director of Studio Nada Debs, & MAJAL partner STUDIO NADA DEBS
Nada Debs is an award-winning designer of Levantine origin, based between Beirut, Dubai, and Kobe. Trained in interior architecture at the Rhode Island School of Design, she works across disciplines, creating spaces and objects that merge craftsmanship with emotional resonance.
🟣As a member of the MAJAL Partner Circle, she offers our certificate students gain invaluable industry experience through internships at her Beirut studio, learning firsthand how to merge heritage craft with a modern global aesthetic.
Raised in Japan and shaped by a life across cultures, she approaches craft as a way to reconnect with her Arab heritage while fostering dialog between traditions. Her practice is guided by the belief that geometry and the human hand act as universal languages, carrying memory and meaning across time and place.
As Creative Director of her eponymous studio, Nada advances a philosophy she calls Handmade & Heart-made, where design balances precision and intuition, and objects are shaped as much by emotion as by form. She collaborates with cultural institutions and global brands alike, positioning craft within a contemporary, international context.
Within the MAJAL Partner Circle, we foster a bridge between our certificate students and the visionaries redefining our creative landscape, industry leaders who translate local craftsmanship into a global design language.
