The Practice — 01 / 03

Eight disciplines,
held under one roof.

No subcontracted intent. Every discipline below is led by a senior member of the studio — never delegated, never outsourced.

Interior Design

01

Architectural interior schemes — spatial planning, joinery, materiality and styling held in a single hand.

Turnkey Renovation

02

End-to-end villa renovation. We arrive at design, depart at the placement of the final styling object.

Luxury Fit-Out

03

Procurement and on-site execution led by our Dubai delivery team, supervised by Amsterdam-trained architects.

Custom Joinery

04

Bespoke walnut, oak and microcement millwork — designed in-house, fabricated by our network of European ateliers.

Feature Walls

05

Travertine, fluted walnut, integrated lighting and bronze accents — composed as singular architectural moments.

Material Selection

06

A curated library of natural stones, hardwoods and finishes sourced across Italy, the Netherlands and the UAE.

Lighting Design

07

Warm, layered, considered. Lighting is the final material — it carries the room from morning to evening.

Styling

08

Curation of furniture, art and objects — pieces that resonate rather than decorate.

The Method — 02 / 03

Four phases,
one continuous hand.

Every commission moves through the same four-phase ritual. The same principal designers carry the work from first sketch to final styling — no handover, no dilution of intent.

Phase I

Discovery

A private consultation at your residence or our atelier. We listen, measure, and define the architectural intent.

Phase II

Design

Concept, materiality, joinery drawings and 3D walkthroughs — reviewed personally by our principal designers.

Phase III

Execution

Procurement, fabrication across European ateliers, and on-site supervision by our Dubai delivery team.

Phase IV

Delivery

Installation, styling, and a final walkthrough. We depart only when the final object is in place.

Engagement — 03 / 03

Weeks, not months — without compromise.

Where peers schedule renovations in seasons, we measure ours in weeks. From whole-villa commissions to bespoke joinery, swimming pools and custom jacuzzis — every project is delivered in two to three months at most, with the same hand-finished quality our studio is known for.

Tier 018 – 12 weeks

Full Studio Commission

Whole-villa interior architecture, joinery and styling — from raw shell to keys in hand.

Tier 024 – 8 weeks

Renovation

Selective renovation of principal rooms — kitchens, primary suites, formal salons.

Tier 032 – 4 weeks

Bespoke Joinery, Pools & Spas

Single-room features, walnut libraries, travertine kitchens, custom swimming pools and jacuzzis — delivered with the same speed and finish.
