Imagine the deserts of Saudi Arabia. The windswept sand dunes. The sculptural rock formations. And in the distance, a camel, standing boldly in the sun’s rays. Camels, and more specifically...
Ghada AlMuhanna Abalkhail is a dedicated cultural and media advisor with a focus on the Arabian Peninsula’s visual history and identity. After earning her Master of Laws (LL.M.) from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Ghada began her career as a counter-terrorism researcher. It was during this time that she recognized the need for a more authentic representation of the Arabian Peninsula’s culture and heritage. This realization inspired her to shift her focus towards media and public diplomacy, working with both public and private entities to create narratives that genuinely reflect the region’s rich history and identity.
As an M.A. Candidate in Media and Visual Anthropology at HMWK in Berlin, Ghada’s work emphasizes storytelling, cultural preservation, and cultural exchange. Her passion for the region’s identity drives her to use her Twitter and Instagram accounts to retell the stories of the Arabian Peninsula, reclaiming its narrative and challenging misconceptions. Ghada’s unique expertise, combined with her passion for detail-oriented and creative writing, enables her to craft engaging content that resonates with multiple audiences across various platforms.

THE ART OF LUXURY BOOKMAKING
Since its beginnings in 1994, Assouline has been dedicated to creating books that are as informational as they are beautiful works of art. The respect for the product and the process of creation is evident in every facet – the traditional technique of hand-binding covers, the imagery that transports the reader to another place and time, the luxurious thickness of each page.
A BOOKSTAND
Coupling an effortless assembly with the ability to showcase every collection from Icons to Ultimates, the Assouline A Bookstand is as elegant as the titles it holds. Designed by Alex Assouline, the luxe stand, with an engraved Assouline A logo centered on both panels, comes in black, red, or clear acrylic.
