adaya’s recent projects showcase their exceptional ability to transform spaces into living works of art. The Aseeb project, a traditional Najdi dining experience in Riyadh, stands as a captivating landmark. It successfully marries traditional elements with modern design, creating a space that invites guests to enjoy authentic cuisine in a culturally rich environment. The careful consideration of space planning and the creation of various dining zones add to the overall allure of Aseeb, making it a memorable dining destination. The Hanaf project, an office space for a family investment company, achieves the perfect balance between comfort and luxury. The curved lines of the corridor and the oval shape of the meeting room create architectural interest. The business lounge concept offers a

multifunctional space for executives, and the design showcases attention to detail, with a focus on minimising ceiling obstructions and creating a harmonious flow throughout the office. The AHS Private Residence is a testament to their skill in translating the unique personalities and passions of their clients into a vibrant home. This project captured the essence of an artistic couple with a love for art and creativity. The formal entrance of this residence immediately sets the tone for what’s to come. A futuristic play of metallic hues breathes life into the space, while custom handmade wall coverings, a bronze console and mirrors create a dynamic visual experience. Carefully selected finishes and accessories complete the vision of a luxurious and well-thought-out space.

It boasts three elegant bedrooms, each with its own en suite bathroom and dressing room, a well-appointed kitchen, pantry, a guest bathroom, and a cosy lounge. The indoor and outdoor dining areas provide breathtaking views, which are further enhanced by three covered terraces, three uncovered terrace areas, and a 13m2 pool. Creating the project was a complex endeavour, involving meticulous attention to detail, environmental protection, and a commitment to quality. The challenges included preserving a nearby wetland and safeguarding endemic trees during construction.

MAURITIUS

One of the key goals of The Peninsula was to ensure that the exterior design seamlessly blended with the natural surroundings. Each building was strategically oriented to provide unobstructed ocean views and maximise the connection with the natural environment. The materials chosen for this coastal and tropical development had to be both durable and elegant. Inside the units, natural textures like wood, linen, rattan, and clay harmonise with cool, structured elements such as concrete and marble. The result is a showcase of highquality, residential finishes befitting a tropical coastal development. The Peninsula’s location, overlooking the iconic Le Morne Brabant mountain, captures the essence of Mauritius’s natural beauty. Black River, with its stunning

beaches, crystal-clear waters, and a vibrant community, offers a dynamic and laid-back lifestyle. Outdoor recreation enthusiasts will find their haven in this town, which also features a lively night-life scene with bars and clubs catering to diverse tastes. Architect Steven Attwood’s design language reflects a commitment to aligning with the natural environment, maximising views, ensuring privacy, and using materials for longlasting, low-maintenance buildings. Features like cantilevers, white paint for sunlight reflection, and awnings and roller shades were employed to optimise natural cooling. The design prioritised longer layouts to offer all living spaces and master bedrooms direct access to the beachfront views, with secondary bedrooms enjoying the mountainous backdrop.

Devani Restaurant

National Library, and the historic Mubarakiya Market. The mezzanine floor of Assima Mall has become the canvas for a returning client’s vision – Devani Restaurant, a modern Indian dining experience with a touch of London’s culinary charm. The client’s dream for this space encompasses dynamic RGB lighting to set the mood and create a unique atmosphere for guests. However, the mezzanine floor required substantial work, including finishing touches for the ceiling and flooring. This set the stage for a project that needed to be executed promptly. The approved design layout thoughtfully balances aesthetics and functionality, replacing circular tables with rectangular ones to accommodate larger groups and infuse a

contemporary touch. The design boasts vertical brass accents, fluted wall cladding, and precise lighting arrangements, casting a timeless modern appeal. The exterior facade blends seamlessly with Assima Mall’s beauty, while the interior boasts captivating lighting and breathtaking decor. The main entrance serves as a pivotal element, shaping the initial impression of the restaurant. Lighting plays a crucial role, not only enhancing aesthetics but also creating a comfortable environment for patrons. The bar counter stands as the magnetic centrepiece, harmonising comfort and functionality for both staff and guests. Devani Restaurant promises to be a unique Indian dining journey, where modern design, innovative materials, and captivating lighting combine to create an unparalleled experience.

l Jaddaf Rotana Suite Hotel, a visionary project by WA International, draws inspiration from the natural splendour of the nearby Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary in Dubai. The property is located less than 4 kilometres from this unique wetland reserve, which became the inspiration and narrative for the hotel. The owner’s wish for generously oversized suites, ranging from 60m2 to 232m2, reflects a commitment to providing spacious luxury in Dubai’s competitive high-end market. WA International’s design director Claire Craig explains: “Throughout the hotel our references to the magnificent nearby mangroves with their tangled roots and rich colours can be found in our interior architectural patterns and finishes. Our custom designed screens, furniture pieces and lighting all reflect the organic nature of the stunning Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary.” For

the hotel’s ‘All Day Dining’ Claire adds, “Our client’s vision for the restaurant was not only to cater to the morning breakfast ritual but become a destination venue in the evening; the food concept was high-end Italian. In contrast to the rest of the hotel’s narrative we decided to create a unique classic Italian dining room. The floors are polished marble and oversized Italianate crystal chandeliers are suspended from the double height spaces.” For the apartments, Claire further explains, “In the studio and one-bedroom apartments, headboards feature hand embroidered scenes of the mangroves. Carpets are designed with leafy patterns. In the living rooms, organic plaster reliefs embellish the ceilings.” All of which contribute to the curated luxury evident throughout the Rotana Suite property, making it a stand-out destination in Dubai’s hospitality landscape.
