Dubai is where the impossible becomes the standard. In 2026, this market demands not just luxury, but 'hyper-luxury'. Here, the reception desk is the company's throne room. We examine local design specifics for the UAE: from using 24K gold leaf to integrating cooling systems for outdoor lobbies. Discover how to create an interior that will amaze even those who have seen it all.
Materials: Rarity as Currency
Exclusivity is valued in Dubai. We utilize the rarest slabs of blue marble from Brazil, semi-precious stones (tiger eye, lapis lazuli), and massive cast bronze inlays. A popular 2026 trend is 'living gold' — nano-protected galvanic coatings that maintain perfect shine in high humidity and salty coastal air.
Scale and Theatricality
Visual Dominance
The average desk length in Business Bay or DIFC skyscrapers reaches 15-20 meters. We design such objects as seamless monoliths. Lighting plays a vital role: in Dubai, we use 'dynamic crystals' — AI-controlled chandeliers that change shape and color based on the time of day and the arrival of VI.P. guests. The reception here is the center of a grand show.
