Qatari Majlis Etiquette

Learning Through Play

The Qatari Majlis is more than a place to gather. It is a social tradition shaped by hospitality, conversation, and shared customs. Because its etiquette is often learned through observation, it can feel unclear to newcomers, expatriates, and even younger Qataris.

This project reinterprets Majlis etiquette as an illustrated bilingual card game that invites players into different Majlis scenarios. Players make decisions and test their understanding of respectful behavior. Rather than memorizing rules, they recognize situations and respond in the moment, similar to how Majlis etiquette is experienced in real life.

Designed as both an educational tool and an engaging experience, the project encourages learning through curiosity and thoughtful choice while celebrating the warmth and spirit of the Majlis.
