Henge Opens New Dubai Flagship on Palm Jumeirah – A Showcase of Italian Design Excellence in the UAE
Henge, the renowned Italian furniture and lighting brand, has officially opened its new flagship showroom in Dubai, marking a significant step in its global expansion and reinforcing its presence in the Middle East’s fast-growing luxury design market. Located on the prestigious Palm Jumeirah with panoramic views of the Burj Al Arab, the showroom is set to become a cornerstone destination for architects, interior designers, and design enthusiasts across the UAE and wider Gulf region.
This latest monobrand space exemplifies Henge’s commitment to craftsmanship, material innovation, and expressive contemporary design. More than just a retail environment, the Dubai showroom has been conceived as an immersive living experience, where refined interior compositions, bespoke furnishings, and exceptional finishes reflect the brand’s distinctive philosophy of modern luxury.
“Dubai is a global hub for design and architecture, and we wanted to create a space that could engage with this multicultural landscape without compromising our identity. It’s not about adapting our style, but about interpreting the context with coherence and respect,” explains Paolo Tormena, Founder and CEO of Henge.
A Tailored Design for the Middle Eastern Market
As with all Henge locations, the Dubai showroom has been designed with a site-specific approach. It takes into account the unique quality of Gulf light, spatial dynamics, and the region’s architectural vernacular, while remaining rooted in the brand’s founding principles of authenticity, quality, and research.
Interiors flow seamlessly from living to dining spaces, each curated to convey a sense of considered luxury and timeless sophistication. The use of raw, tactile materials—stone, burnished metals, fine woods, and hand-treated leathers—echoes the brand’s devotion to material storytelling and artisan production; values that strongly resonate with discerning clients across the Middle East.
The showroom features a mix of iconic Henge pieces and new 2025 collection launches, all curated to reflect the tastes of the UAE’s high-end design clientele, where personalisation, exclusivity, and sensory richness are key.
Establishing a Cultural and Creative Dialogue in the UAE
Dubai’s emergence as a regional epicentre for luxury interiors and contemporary architecture makes it the ideal setting for Henge’s flagship store. The new space is not only a commercial platform but a cultural interface that aims to inspire collaboration and dialogue with the design community throughout the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, and beyond.
This expansion also aligns with the city’s ongoing evolution as a global design destination, home to events such as Dubai Design Week and Downtown Design, as well as a growing base of international showrooms, ateliers, and creative studios.
With this strategic move, Henge strengthens its direct connection with Middle Eastern audiences, offering architects, interior designers, and private clients the opportunity to engage with the brand in an environment that embodies its core design ethos.
