About me

Hajar is an accomplished individual who graduated as an interior designer in Dubai, UAE, showcasing a strong educational foundation. Eager to broaden her expertise, she pursued a second degree in environmental design at OCAD University in Toronto, demonstrating a commitment to continuous learning and a global perspective. Hajar further honed her skills by gaining valuable experience as an ARIDO intern, showcasing dedication to professional growth in the dynamic field of design. Following her academic pursuits, Hajar seamlessly transitioned into the professional realm, contributing her talents to well-known companies in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). Her notable work with these renowned firms solidified her reputation as a skilled and sought-after designer. Building on this success, Hajar took a bold step in her career by venturing into entrepreneurship, establishing her own design company. This entrepreneurial spirit reflects her confidence and passion for creating unique and impactful spaces. The diverse cultural influences of living in both Dubai and Toronto served as powerful motivators for Hajar. Inspired by the fusion of these two vibrant cities, she founded DOT Designs, a company that reflects her unique perspective and creative synthesis of global design. This dynamic blend of experiences shapes Hajar’s approach, allowing DOT Designs to offer distinctive and culturally rich design solutions. Now having her own business as an entrepreneurial designer, she has total freedom of creating whatever sparks her imagination and continues to push the boundaries by experimenting with something new in every piece.
