Dubai, UAE, May 2026: Crate&Barrel and CB2 officially opened a new retail destination at Dubai Hills Mall on May 19, bringing both brands together in a full-scale, side-by-side store within a single, immersive space.
Designed to go beyond a traditional store launch, the concept offers a retail experience where customers can explore both brands under one roof, while each maintains its distinct identity and aesthetic, spanning Crate&Barrel’s contemporary home collections and CB2’s more design-forward, modern pieces.
The opening also spotlighted local creativity through Majid Al Futtaim’s Ma’an initiative, with UAE-based small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) hosting live activations through the event. From candle-making to perfume customization workshops, the experience blends international retail with community-driven, hands-on engagement.
The launch debuted Crate & Barrel and CB2’s Spring Summer collection, bringing together relaxed coastal inspiration, airy textures, and effortless modern design for the season ahead. The event also featured interactive stations, personalization moments and content-led experiences for guests at Dubai Hills Mall, home to the new retail experience featuring Crate&Barrel and CB2.
