Scope of Work
The Challenge
Delivering generous storage and a spacious feel in 95 sqm while the owners managed everything remotely from overseas.
Our Solution
Architecture-integrated wardrobes and weekly render-based approvals let the couple sign off every detail online, so nothing was left to chance on arrival.
Our Approach
A restrained Scandinavian-minimalist palette, light oak floors and fully integrated storage make a compact two-bedroom feel open, bright and effortless to live in.
Project Story
When our clients handed over the keys to their Marina Gate apartment, it was a blank canvas of bare walls and exposed connections. They were moving from Singapore, working full-time, and had no appetite for the usual Dubai fit-out marathon of showrooms, quotes and delays. They wanted one team, one price and a finished home.
We designed a modern minimalist scheme built around light: pale oak floors, a soft off-white palette and full-height glazing left open to the marina. Every metre of storage is built into the architecture — a floor-to-ceiling wardrobe wall, a concealed utility cupboard and a bench-seat entryway — so the living space stays serene and open. Furniture and joinery were manufactured to spec in Foshan while we finalised the developer NOC, then shipped and installed in a tight on-site window.
Sixty days after sign-off the couple walked into a fully styled, move-in-ready home — art on the walls, bed made, kettle on the counter. Just bring your suitcase.
