If you’re going to talk design, art, culture, architecture and the identity of Abu Dhabi and the UAE then one person you have to have at the microphone is Her Excellency Noura al Kaabi. Her influence and impact in shaping the creative scene here is exceptional and this Small Talk was the perfect setting to explore a little bit of that.

#6 / Small Talk with Kjetil from Snøhetta
After a few near misses (good ones, not bad ones) we finally managed to get Nuno at the table with Kjetil Thorsen, co-founder of Snøhetta, and someone who we greatly admire.Having heard a lot of good conversations between Kjetil and Nuno over the past couple of years it is great to finally have one on tape, recorded live at Final Draft 2025

#5 / Small Talk with Rasmus from SLA
If there is one guarantee in life it’s that any project that involves Rasmus will be 78% more fun and interesting. It’s generally the same rule for conversations with him, which is why we had to sit him at the Small Talk table and press record.

#4 / Small Talk with Peter from Norm Architects
It’s still quite surreal that we get to work on projects with Norm after so many years admiring their work from a distance, and it’s even more surreal that we can just call them in for a Small Talk and chat architecture with them. But here we are and here are Peter and Nuno discussing the Norm Architects approach to their designs and the intention behind it all.
