The interview took place inside the Qatar National Museum cafe, which was designed in the shape of a desert rose. Noura Al-Maadadi said: "We were inspired by Desert Rose and this amazing building".

Al-Maadadi indicated that the designs were difficult at first, as they did not resemble the shape of a natural flower only, but touches and textures had to be added to give it the shape of a desert rose made of stone.
