AMSY Lab is a creative space located in the heart of the lively and vibrant district of JAX in Diriyah. Owned by architect Abdulaziz Abbas and opened eight months ago, the lab serves as a space for artists to express their appreciation for handicrafts as well as engage in various forms of weekly workshops, especially workshops on carving wood.
Despite being established for less than a year, the lab has been developed under the umbrella of AMSY Construction and Innovation Co. and is collaborating with Dahma Coffee, providing a mixture of art experiences while enjoying a cup of coffee for both customers and visitors.
Visitors will be fascinated by the interior. It is by far one of the best coffee and creative places in Riyadh. It combines visual art with coffee and can easily satisfy the senses with the smell of roasted coffee beans and the beautiful carving on the wooden wall.
Another exciting aspect of this place is also the utilization of modern technology in Art. AMSY Lab uses a robotic sculpting technique on wood and stone, which visitors will find unique.
They also organize art galleries and host workshops every weekend for all types of arts, and invite art lovers and artists to get involved in creating artwork, such as when they organized carving on wooden coffee tables and phone holders in the past, along with decoupage on cup coasters and clay workshops.
However, the coffee options are limited to almost the basic hot drinks. Dahma coffee serves only hot beverages with only three types of dessert. It would be much better if they also included cold drinks in their menu for visitors who might prefer iced coffee over hot coffee.
Another point that might be a disadvantage is the cost of workshops. Workshops cost from SR200 ($53.33) to SR300, which some will believe is a bit expensive.
