Inspired by traditional Islamic aesthetics, this reception is not just a welcoming area, but a visual and emotional experience rooted in heritage, harmony, and refined taste.

Design Vision

The concept revolves around Islamic architecture’s core values: symmetry, balance, and intricate detail. The reception is adorned with carefully designed geometric patterns, mashrabiya-inspired screens, and ornamental arches that create a sense of depth and visual rhythm. The ceiling features elegant muqarnas-style molding, adding an artistic touch that draws the eye upward..

Color & Material Palette

Earthy tones of sand, ivory, and deep walnut were chosen to evoke warmth and tradition, while metallic accents in gold and bronze add a contemporary luxury touch. Materials like polished marble, wood inlays, and decorative tiles enhance the tactile richness of the space, embodying a true East-meets-modern essence.

Lighting & Ambiance

The lighting was meticulously designed to accentuate the Islamic detailing. Soft ambient lights paired with classic hanging lanterns bring in a warm glow, creating a serene and inviting environment for guests
