Every detail of our Uzbekistan study trip was thought about by organizers carefully and with so much love. Thank you Adam, Steff and Farrux 💌

This was a tremendously enjoyable experience. The art instruction was excellent, the planning worked out perfectly and, most of all, the people were terrific.

It was a dream come true going on this trip to Uzbekistan which has been on my radar for years and it was really wonderful to join an amazing group of people from many different countries all with the same interest and passion in learning and creating geometric patterns from an amazing teacher, Adam, who was accompanied by Stephanie and Farruq. The various tours/excursions were excellent enabling us to learn about the incredible history and buildings in Samarkand and Bukhara. The trip to the potter's workshop in Urgut was a particular highlight for me as I had read about the particular colours used in the ceramics in that area. All in all a brilliant trip for me where I learned so much about Uzbekistan food, culture, architecture and geometric patterns.

Unforgettable! Adam, Farruh and Stef were lovely, helpful, perfectly organized people, who made this trip superfine. The program with the art courses and guided sight seeing tours is particularly worth mentioning. Definitely recommend!

We had a great time, the weather was just perfect, Adam and his lovely wife were a medicine for every one ( teaching,helping,supporting,organizing) add to that Farruh ( the torch of the trip) he was an angle My only complaint was the first hotel

I have travelled to Morocco, Turkey, India, Uzbekistan and New York to take classes with Adam. The courses provide a unique way to explore an art form. I enjoy the meditative hours drawing and seeing the patterns in the architecture of the sites we visit. I had never studied patterns before my first class, and the lessons consistently challenge me while still being accessible to someone picking up a compass for the first time. The schedule is conducive to relaxing, and Adam has a special talent for procuring a delicious cup of tea or coffee when the hour calls for it. The other participants on each trip have been lovely! I am a solo traveler, and I have felt welcome and included on each trip. I have seen cities in ways not possible on other trips. I’ve already signed up for my next class!

I feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to take two of Adam's classes — marquetry and plaster carving — at his London studio in Bow, and I enjoyed them both equally. Adam is a brilliant teacher — patient, highly skilled, and excellent at explaining everything clearly. I left feeling like I’d learned a lot in a short space of time and gained real confidence from the experience. I would definitely go back and highly recommend his courses. 🙏🏼

Last year I went to a workshop in New Mexico organize by Adam and his team. It’s was one of most amazing and transformative event in long term I have. I am mathematician and educator and wanted to learn more about Islamic Geometric Pattern from expert. Not my need only meet but also the environment to create was super health and helpful to everyone to have sense of belonging and flourishing. I am looking to join other event by them again a learn more from Islamic geometric Pattern from expert.
