Services: Exterior & Interior Design, Contracting & Architecture

Our clients came to us with a simple wish list: a home that feels open to the garden, private from the street, and effortless for a family that loves to host. We met at the site at sunrise and sunset, mapping breezes and glare, and those hours set the rules. The long elevation faces the lawn, so we designed a clear, two-level glass gallery that lets living, dining, and the family lounge read as one continuous space to the landscape. A deep roof line and a slender brise-soleil run the full width to shade the facade and keep the glass performing in Dubai’s heat.

Inside, a double-height hall anchors the plan, with quiet bedroom wings stacked to each side. Entertaining flows from a sheltered terrace into the pool court; on busy weeknights the same terrace becomes an outdoor family room. We kept the material palette calm and warm: honed stone, bronzed metal, and timber soffits that extend outdoors. The clients were very involved here, joining us at the yard to approve stone lots and sitting with our team under a full-scale pergola mockup to tune the spacing and the light.
