5 Exclusive Luxury Residential Fit-out Trends in Dubai

Written by Kirsten Delcie | Jul 22, 2024 8:50:00 AM

Whether Dubai or any of the other emirates, when you buy an apartment or villa, whether you are looking to live in it or rent it out and make some money from it. The way it looks is important for different reasons.

The way people decorate in a vibrant city like Dubai is constantly evolving. It mixes ideas from different cultures, uses new technology and everyone likes to add their own unique elements. Before you get to soft interior design though you need luxury residential fit-out contractors in Dubai to sort out the space itself.

Part of the ever evolving process of fit out and renovation is the changes in what’s in and what’s not. This can of course be subjective, but here are some elements to consider;

Smart Home Integration

Apartments and villas in Dubai are getting really cool to stay cool, with smart home integration. Automated systems that can control your home environment, including lighting, climate, security and entertainment, all from a single device or app.

Smart systems can turn things off when you're not using them to save your electricity bill. You can program lights to come on and off at random times so it appears someone is home even when you are not. You can also drop the AC temperature the day before you come back from summer holidays so your home isn’t quite so much of an oven upon your return.

Any combination of setup is possible. It’s not just about setting things for when you are away. You can also change the ambiance, temperature or what’s on the TV whilst you are home, without having to move from your super comfy sofa. 

Bespoke Furniture and Custom Interiors 

Having your unique stamp on your home is something most people strive for. Custom made furniture is one way to ensure your home is completely unique. You choose the colours, the materials and even the shape. Like a bookshelf that fits perfectly in that weird corner or a couch that's just the right size for your living room - you can make the furniture just as you wish.

Custom furniture can also be super practical too. A unique sized bed with extra storage underneath or a dining table made from unusual materials that fits your uniquely sized and shaped room. Whatever you need, it can be made to fit your life perfectly.

When your whole home is designed just for you, with furniture that fits perfectly, it's unique - it's 100% you. 

Luxury Wellness Amenities

Personal wellbeing is paramount, we are learning more and more just how important. Whilst some visit centres for this, many are also looking to build this into their homes. Having the ability to work out, stretch, meditate, move, sauna, steam room or ice bath at home is becoming the norm.

And, that’s why home interiors are now full of luxury wellness amenities like home spas, gyms, yoga studios and dedicated meditation rooms.  

Your home spa can be equipped with saunas, steam rooms and hot tubs for ultimate relaxation and rejuvenation. Your dedicated yoga studio and meditation room can provide support for your mental and physical well-being and for an active lifestyle, you can create a custom fitness area too.

Coupled with the above, wellness technology, such as air purifiers, circadian lighting and grounding sheets are also on trend for a holistic living environment.

Luxury Minimalism

What is luxury minimalism? It's all about keeping things simple but still looking exceptional.

The minimalist approach is reducing the amount of things you actually own. You pick a few really good quality items that stand out and are functional. You have less furniture, but what you do have is exceptionally well made.

People who like this style use expensive materials like marble or exclusive woods. They choose elements that look plain and simple but are of the highest quality. Colours are usually simple with a lot of white, beige or grays which help bring an air of calm and peace as well.

This style is great for people who don't like clutter and want an open relaxed home. 

Open Plan Living Space

Open-plan living spaces are a popular option in luxury homes. This concept creates large, open areas that often combine the living room, dining room and kitchen together. These open spaces make homes feel bigger and airier. It's also great for entertaining because everyone appears to be in the same room. Having large open spaces also means a multi-functional approach -  one day it’s a big family sit down dinner, the next it’s perfect for a dance party. You can move furniture around and make the space work for you.
