01 · The story

Designed around the view

Villa Mirador looks out to the Burj Al Arab, and our clients wanted every room to make the most of it. The challenge was to open up the views without losing the integrity of each space, balancing openness with privacy so the home suits the family's lifestyle and their guests.

02 · The inspiration

Neutral, with colour

The mood board set a calm, neutral base with crystal chandeliers and curved, sculptural seating, then brought in colour through fabrics, with soft blues in the majlis. Travertine floors, marble and light oak kept the palette natural.

03 · The outcome

Open, yet private

A marble staircase lit with LEDs is the villa's centrepiece. On the ground floor, shelving and tinted glass partitions connect the spaces while keeping them private, and bespoke furniture is built into the finishes. Wood-effect porcelain brings warmth to the bedrooms: a timeless home that frames the city skyline.
