How much does interior design cost in Dubai?
Design fees depend on the size of the space and the scope — a single majlis is priced very differently from a full villa. After a free consultation we give you a fixed, itemised design fee, and if we also build the project the design work is integrated into one contract.
Do you offer interior design without construction?
Yes. You can commission design only — concept, 3D visuals and full working drawings that any qualified contractor can build from. Many clients start design-only and later ask our own teams to execute.
Can you build the design as well?
Yes — that is our biggest advantage. Abu Ali Group has been a Dubai contractor since 2003, with in-house fit-out, joinery, aluminium and glass and HVAC teams. One contract covers design and execution, with a single point of accountability.
Do you design majlis for private homes?
Yes. Men's and women's majlis are a core part of our villa work — proportions, seating layout, privacy and guest flow, in traditional Arabic, contemporary or blended styles.
How long does the design stage take?
A single room concept typically takes 2 to 3 weeks; a full villa design with 3D visuals and complete working drawings usually runs 6 to 10 weeks, depending on size and how quickly decisions are approved.
Will I see the design before committing to the build?
Always. Key spaces are presented as photorealistic 3D renders with material boards, and revised with you until approved — only then do we produce working drawings or price the execution.
Do you take on commercial interior projects?
Yes — offices, clinics, retail, restaurants and showrooms. We handle the design and, where required, the authority submissions and fit-out approvals that commercial spaces in Dubai need.
Do you work with a client's existing furniture and layout?
Of course. Renovation and restyling projects often keep structural walls, key furniture pieces or existing joinery — we design around what stays and specify only what should change.
