StreetXO Dubai Project
For the StreetXO Dubai project by renowned chef Dabiz Muñoz, HIZE contributed to the artistic atmosphere and visual identity of the space through a series of urban-inspired artworks and interventions. Blending graffiti, abstraction and raw street culture aesthetics, the project was designed to complement the explosive energy and rebellious personality of StreetXO — a restaurant concept where food, music, design and art collide into a fully immersive experience. The artistic contribution helped transform the environment beyond a traditional restaurant setting, adding layers of texture, movement and visual storytelling inspired by contemporary urban culture. A collaboration where graffiti language evolved into part of the sensory experience, reinforcing the bold and disruptive identity that defines StreetXO Dubai.
LOUIS VUITTON LV Lovers collection
During the exclusive launch of the Pharrell Williams collection at the Dubai Mall flagship store of Louis Vuitton, HIZE was invited to create a live customization experience inspired by graffiti and urban culture. Luxury gifts and selected pieces from the collection were transformed in real time through hand-painted tags, custom lettering and artistic interventions — merging the raw energy of street art with the world of high fashion. The collaboration brought an authentic urban edge into the luxury retail space, creating unique one-of-one pieces and an immersive experience for guests attending the presentation. A project where graffiti evolved beyond the streets into the universe of fashion, craftsmanship and luxury experiences.
