A modular pavilion designed for flexibility and future reuse, exploring how temporary event structures can become adaptable assets for different programmes, events and locations.

Six Degrees Offsite brings the graduating work of the College of Architecture, Art and Design (CAAD) at the American University of Sharjah to Dubai Design Week 2026. An extension of CAAD’s annual graduating exhibition, it presents projects across architecture, interior design, visual communication, design management and multimedia design, highlighting the diverse perspectives and creative approaches of emerging designers.

Alongside the exhibition, a series of talks, workshops and community activities brings together students, alumni, educators and industry professionals, creating opportunities for exchange, collaboration and meaningful conversations around design. Six Degrees Offsite celebrates not only the outcomes of design education but also the ideas, processes and possibilities that emerge as young designers begin their professional journeys.
