Interior design in Dubai — concept through completion
Concept through completion.
Full design service from initial brief through schematic, design development, tender packages, and on-site supervision. Our drawings are built to be built from.
This is one of twelve services held in-house by Montaigne Design. We do not subcontract the parts of the room that matter most — drawings are produced by our designers, joinery by our workshop, lighting by our team, and procurement is held by us. The contractor builds. We design and supervise.
Engagements typically begin with a private conversation in Dubai or Shanghai. Our minimum project fee is AED 400,000, and we respond within one business day.
What This Includes
Four pillars of the engagement
Schematic Design
Plan, materiality, light. Resolved on paper before resolved on site.
Design Development
Joinery, FF&E, finishes specified to a level that lets the contractor build without guessing.
Tender & Procurement
Tender package issued. We hold the supplier list.
On-Site Supervision
Weekly site presence through completion. The principal designer stays involved.

Common questions
Frequently asked
What does interior design in Dubai cost?
Our minimum project fee is AED 400,000. Fees vary by scope, area, and finish tier. We provide a detailed fee proposal after the initial conversation and site visit.
How long does an interior design project take?
A typical residential project runs twelve to eighteen months from concept to handover. Hospitality projects can run longer depending on the operator's programme.
Do you offer design-only or design-and-build?
Both. We offer full interior design as a stand-alone service, and turnkey design-and-build where we hold the budget, the programme, and the quality through to handover.
