The Arabic Design Archive and Design Repository are founded by the Egyptian Designer, practitioner historian, and researcher Moe Elhossieny. ADA was conceived in an attempt to address the limited historical resources around Arab design and accessible archives concerned with its history. Elhossieny embarked on this project in early 2020, focusing on collecting Arabic book cover designs. Since then, the archive team has grown to include Arab designers and researchers from around the region, brought together through a shared sense of responsibility to make this archive possible. The archive team is located between Cairo, Beirut, Jerusalem, Casablanca, and Vancouver.
Since 2021, the team's efforts and focus have expanded and slowly grown to encompass all graphic design-related material.
