The Challenge & Goal
The primary goal for this prestigious villa in Abu Dhabi’s Corniche district was to create a classic majlis and dining area that embodies cultural reverence and impeccable taste. The challenge was to blend modern Arabian design with timeless classical elements to craft a space that felt both grand for formal hosting and intimately welcoming. We aimed to design an environment that honors the traditional spirit of hospitality while showcasing the pinnacle of luxury aesthetics.

Our Approach & Solution
Our approach began at the grand entrance, where polished marble floors, soft golden accents, and a magnificent chandelier create an unforgettable first impression, guiding guests toward the heart of the home. Inside the majlis, we curated a tranquil atmosphere using a light color palette and soft ambient lighting.
The seating arrangement, central to any majlis, features custom-designed, powder-blue sofas with champagne-gold carved frames, laid out to promote connection and comfort. To add layers of texture and sophistication, we incorporated diamond-padded wall panels and luxurious Persian-style rugs. Layered drapes elegantly filter natural light, while tall vertical mirrors amplify the sense of openness and reflect the intricate details throughout the space, creating a perfect sanctuary for hosting with timeless charm.
