Interior design and fit-out on Bluewaters Island

Apartments, penthouses and townhouses beside Ain Dubai. We give Bluewaters homes a calm, tactile interior and furnish them down to the tableware.

A different kind of project

Bluewaters is a small island community, and its homes are relatively new. Nothing here has to be torn out or rescued. The work is about character: replacing a neutral developer finish with materials that feel good to the hand and look right in the strong daylight reflected off the water.

What we usually do here

  • Decorative plaster, wall panelling and new paint colours
  • Built-in wardrobes and storage with custom fronts
  • Decorative and accent lighting on separate circuits
  • Floor-to-ceiling curtains and blackout blinds
  • Furniture, rugs, art and tableware chosen and put in place

Texture instead of colour

Our apartment on the island has no accent colour at all. The interest comes from texture: cloudy plaster on the walls, heavy linen curtains, oak parquet, a travertine console, boucle and bentwood chairs, wardrobe fronts with a linen finish and an arched grip instead of handles.

Working on the island

Work starts with a NOC from the building management. On an island every delivery and every van has to be planned, so we agree the schedule with the building in advance and group deliveries together.

Second homes and holiday lets

Many homes on the island are second homes or holiday lets. For them we choose finishes and fabrics that cope with sun, sand and guests, and we complete the apartment so that it can be photographed and listed on the day of handover.
