Mansion interior design — Emirates Hills

Emirates Hills carries the longest commissioning cycles in the UAE — and the homes that survive them are the homes designed for the family, not for resale. Our practice on the Hills is built around that distinction.

Why Montaigne in Emirates Hills

20+ years, three cities
Founded in Hong Kong in 2011, headquartered in Shanghai, with offices in Dubai and Singapore. The studio has worked across China, the Gulf, and beyond for two decades.
Founder-led, not delegated
Cathy Wang reads every project herself. The team behind every drawing is the team you meet in the first conversation.
Quality, accuracy, speed, aftercare
Four standards we will not negotiate. Drawings that build cleanly, finishes that hold up, deadlines that we meet, and an aftercare line you can call.

Local context

Emirates Hills — the brief

Emirates Hills estates are among the largest private homes in the UAE. Plots of twenty thousand square feet and above, with budgets that begin at AED 10 million for the interior alone. The families who build here expect a practice that can hold the brief across a two-year programme without losing the thread.

Our joinery workshop in Shanghai is the quiet advantage. Custom wardrobes, libraries, panelling, and one-off furniture pieces — produced to our drawings, finished to our specification, and installed by our team in Dubai. The result is an interior that reads as one hand, because it is one hand.

Common questions

Frequently asked

Do you design mansion interiors in Emirates Hills?
We do. Emirates Hills mansions are among the largest residential commissions in the UAE. Our studio has the scale, the joinery capability, and the programme discipline to deliver them.
What makes Emirates Hills projects different?
The commissioning cycles are longer, the budgets are larger, and the families expect a home that will serve three generations — not three years. We design for permanence.
Can you source custom joinery for Emirates Hills villas?
Our Shanghai atelier produces custom joinery — wardrobes, kitchens, libraries, panelling — specified by our designers and installed by our team in Dubai.
