We often think of our homes as simply a place to live. But what if they could also tell our stories - supporting our wellbeing, our heritage, and our evolving selves?
In this edition of Make your Mark, we spoke with Dr. Douha, architect, researcher, educator and a colour expert specialising in interiors, about how colour transforms the spaces we inhabit. Douha shared how colour isn’t just aesthetic - it’s deeply personal, shaped by culture, memory, and emotion. A shade that soothes one person might energise, or even agitate another. What matters is understanding what you need from your space and reflecting that through thoughtful choices.
She reminded us that there are no universal rules: colour interacts with texture, light, and function. And just as we change over time, so do the colours and objects we find comfort in.
Most beautifully, Doha’s philosophy celebrates individuality - an invitation to look inward, celebrate your heritage, and create spaces that truly feel like yours.
