We are thrilled to announce that we’ve just won the Sustainable Interior Design Initiative of the Year at the CID Awards 2017 for our work with on the Smart Dubai office. The judges notes how the project led to LEED Gold Certification and how sustainability is actually achieved, from the site handling to execution. They also commended the workmanship in the fit-out and the process that took the Smart Dubai Office to completion.

Our senior interior designer Nadine Abedzadeh said of the project, ‘From concept, we thought about sustainability. Our approach started with material selection – everything we used was recycled. It even went as far as when we were looking at MEP and the way in which we have lighting control and chimers to make sure the lights were only used when needed in the night-time, so it’s all really about energy saving.”

Smart Dubai spends each day coming up with initiatives to make Dubai the happiest city on earth. dwp wanted to give them the happiest workplace from which to do it. We’re incredibly proud that we’ve achieved this and been recognised for our sustainability prowess at the same time with this award.

We are delighted to announce that we’ve just won the Luxury Residence – Global Award at The International Design and Architecture Awards 2017 for our work on 98 Wireless in Bangkok. The award recognises the ultimate in luxurious residences from across the world.

When designing this now iconic building, we focused on both luxury but also solidity and permanence. It was important that the building had stature. So we evoked the grandeur and timelessness of the European Beaux-Arts style as well as taking inspiration from the great buildings in New York’s fifth Avenue. CNN were so impressed they recently featured dwp on their international ‘One Square meter’ segment – http://cnn.it/2xzuy3I

dwp are proud to be spearhead such a unique and timeless building for Bangkok, and now we’re even prouder to see our work receive this prestigious award.

At dwp we excel at creating places where people want to be, and currently there is an increasing demand to be in luxurious surroundings. One such place is 98 Wireless in Bangkok, the recent winner of the global award for Best Luxury Residence at the The International Design and Architecture Awards 2017. The project was recently featured on CNN’s Square One in this linked article and video .

98 Wireless by Sansiri is a 25-storey high-rise condominium containing 77 luxurious units. Styled and furnished exclusively by Ralph Lauren Home, the residence is regarded as one of Southeast Asia’s most prestigious addresses. It has been equipped with the region’s highest standard in residential living, boasting luxury and class that separates the project from the surrounding modern architecture of Central Embassy, Noble Plenchit, and Park Venture. The classic design of 98 Wireless taken its influence from the beaux arts style, whilst incorporating state of the art technology and sustainable design.

Over the past few years, branded residences have become increasingly popular. People are prepared to pay a premium to live the luxury life. The concept is simple: build a high-end residential project in a desirable location and integrate a luxury brand, celebrity or artist that will attract the target market. With a focus on quality, superior design and service, branded residences have redefined how we create aspirational homes, utilising the luxury and recognition of big name brands to leverage popularity.

We’ve applied these themes across a number of different residential projects in our portfolio. The Alef Residences at The Palm, in Dubai personifies the ultimate luxury of sculptured space and vista. Or the Shanghai Town & Country Club and Residences in Shanghai is a great example of creating a total luxury lifestyle community.

The forecast for the luxury property market is strong. dwp seeks to continuously provide clients with innovative ideas and value added services that will increase the property’s value and aesthetic appeal. We believe that brand experience redefines how developers create aspirational projects, leveraging off the extra concept, lifestyle and services offered by world-famous brands, and we are primed to evolve with this trend.
