I took on this villa where the original design had already begun, but the client was most unhappy, and with good reason.

​

The basic layout was fine, but the position of the doors and windows and no sun shading, had to be improved.. Fortunately I was able to stop the construction, which gave me little time to redesign the exterior, and tweak the interiors...  My client, a local Dubai citizen, was young and eager to have something special and modern..  Finishing detailing was a challenge, but between us, we arrived at the perfect blend of minimal white and dark wood porcelain tiling, with anthracite windows frames and a large pivot bespoke front door in solid wood with stainless steel surround..

​

The garden is at the front, and a carefully positioned pool to the left of a path where I used glass inserts with back lighting for effect...

​

An enjoyable project and of course we are still in contact for the odd coffee and hopefully always will...
