Furniture for Dubai Design District, Built in Our Own Factory
Dubai Design District is home to architects, interior designers, fashion houses, luxury brands, creative agencies and galleries, and every one of them notices a bad joint or a colour that is slightly off. Off-the-shelf office furniture rarely suits a studio that wants its space to say something about its work. We are the manufacturer, so we make it the way you draw it. Our factory in Al Quoz cuts, edges, veneers and assembles studio worktables, workstations, executive desks, reception counters, meeting tables, display shelving and storage to your sizes, materials and details. You deal directly with the people who build and install your furniture, and you can visit the factory to see your pieces before they leave.
Production runs on computer-controlled panel saws, edge-banding and drilling machines, so long worktables come out flat and true and a run of matching desks is identical in size, colour and finish. Our team of designers, machine operators, carpenters, finishers, drivers and installers works as easily from an architect’s shop drawings as from a simple sketch.

02 / Getting to d3
How Far Is Our Factory From Dubai Design District?
Dubai Design District sits beside Al Khail Road on the Dubai Creek side of Business Bay, a short drive from Sheikh Zayed Road and Downtown Dubai. It is a campus of low- and mid-rise buildings with offices, studios, showrooms and galleries around shaded courtyards, built for design, fashion and creative businesses. Our factory in Al Quoz is about 12 km away, around 15 minutes outside rush hour. That makes it easy to bring samples to your studio, measure on site and invite you to see your pieces in the factory before delivery.
| Type of space | What to expect | How we plan it |
|---|---|---|
| d3 office buildings | Building-management approval and a booked service lift | Permit requested early, loading-bay and lift slots booked together |
| Design and architecture studios | Models, samples and live projects on every surface | Work agreed room by room, nothing moved without you |
| Showrooms and flagship spaces | Clients visiting by day and premium finishes on show | Installation after hours, surfaces protected, space left ready to open |
| Brand regional offices | Own security and strict brand standards | Team list sent ahead, samples approved before production |
| Galleries and event spaces | Exhibitions, openings and changing layouts | Delivery between shows, loose pieces that can be moved |
| Small studios and creative units | Compact rooms and shared corridors | Pieces sized for the lift and door, assembled in place |
Al Khail Road and the Business Bay exits are busiest at rush hour, roughly 7:30 to 9:30 am and 5 to 8 pm, and d3 hosts events in the evenings and at weekends. We check the events calendar with you and book the service lift first, then plan the run around it.
Which road we take, and when
From the Al Quoz factory we take Al Khail Road north and turn into Dubai Design District from the Business Bay side, or use Sheikh Zayed Road and Financial Centre Road when Al Khail Road is busy. Large orders arrive as full loads in the agreed slot, and long worktables travel fully protected and are joined on site if they will not fit the lift in one piece.
Because the factory is so close, we can bring finish samples and hardware to your studio, measure on site the same week and invite your team to Al Quoz to see a prototype before the full run. For brands with launch dates and studios with client presentations, that short distance takes a lot of risk out of the programme.

Made to Your Design: Custom Furniture for d3
In d3, many of our clients are designers themselves. Some bring finished shop drawings, some bring a sketch and a mood board, and some ask us to develop the details with them. Because we manufacture, we can follow your design closely, make a sample of a joint, an edge or a finish before production, and build pieces that look like they were designed for your space, because they were.
Manufacturing for designers and architects
Interior designers and architects based in d3 often specify furniture for their own clients’ projects across the city. Send us your drawings and specifications and we prepare a costed quotation, shop drawings for your approval and samples where needed, then manufacture, deliver and install to your programme. Trade pricing applies on project orders.

07 / Build quality
Built to a Designer’s Standard
In a d3 studio, furniture is looked at closely by people who design for a living, and it is used hard by teams working long hours on tight deadlines. Because we make it ourselves, we control what goes into it. This is what you get.
Worktops, boards and veneer
Tops in 18 mm and 25 mm board, finished in melamine, lacquer or real wood veneer, chosen for flatness and a consistent colour. Long worktables get thicker tops and hidden support so they stay flat.
Edges and joints
Edges are sealed with hard-wearing edge-banding matched to the top, or finished in solid timber where your design calls for it. Joints are tight and consistent from piece to piece.
Frames and metalwork
Slim steel frames, legs and cable spines with a powder-coated finish that resists chips and scuffs. Adjustable levelling feet keep long tables level on polished concrete.
Chairs and mechanisms
Ergonomic task chairs for long days at the screen, and meeting, lounge and executive chairs in leather or fabric. Try them at our Al Quoz showroom, 15 minutes from d3.
Storage and hardware
Drawers run on metal runners, doors close on quality hinges, and cabinets lock, so drawings, samples and contracts stay safe and organised.
Checked before it leaves
Every piece is assembled or test-fitted in the factory and checked for finish, level and fittings before it is packed, and you are welcome to inspect it there first.
08 / Local knowledge
Choosing Furniture for a d3 Studio or Office
Dubai Design District brings together architecture and interior practices, fashion and luxury brands, creative and media agencies, furniture and product showrooms, galleries and a large community of freelancers and start-ups. Their spaces are as much a statement as a workplace, so the furniture has to work hard and look considered. Many also open their doors to clients, buyers and the public during design weeks and other d3 events, so studios and showrooms have to look their best at short notice.
Architecture practices
Architects need wide desks for two screens and drawings, model tables, plan storage and a meeting room for design reviews with clients.
Interior design studios
Interior studios need a material library, a well-lit presentation table and desks for the team, often in finishes that show off their own style.
Fashion and luxury brands
Fashion and luxury brands need a reception that matches the brand, sample and fitting tables, showroom storage and offices for buying and marketing teams.
Creative and media agencies
Agencies need bench desks that adapt to changing teams, quiet focus spots, a lounge for brainstorms and a meeting room for pitches.
Showrooms and galleries
Showrooms and galleries need counters, plinths and display shelving that put the products first, plus a small office behind the scenes.
Freelancers and start-ups
Freelancers and young studios in d3’s smaller units need a few good desks, ergonomic chairs and storage that can grow with them.
Planning numbers we start from
Rules of thumb for a first layout. We refine them against your actual floor plan and design.
- Studio desks of about 1,600 to 1,800 mm wide for two screens and drawings
- Model and sample tables at about 900 to 1,000 mm high for standing work
- Roughly 7 to 10 m² of floor per person in an open studio
- About 2.5 to 3 m² per seat in meeting and presentation rooms
- Material shelves of about 300 to 400 mm deep for sample boards
- Service-lift doors measured before long worktables are designed
09 / Delivery & installation
Delivery and Installation in Dubai Design District
d3 buildings book their loading bays and service lifts, showrooms and galleries welcome visitors through the day and the district hosts events in the evenings. Our own team plans each delivery around all of it, protects every finished surface and leaves your space ready to show.
Building permits
We arrange what d3 building management asks for, typically the vehicle and driver details, a list of the workers on site, our trade licence and the delivery date and time, and agree the slot with you before the day.
Protected handling
Veneer, lacquer and stone travel wrapped and corner-protected and stay that way until they reach the room. Lifts, floors and door frames are protected on the way in.
Night and weekend installation
We install in the evening, at night or at the weekend when your building allows it, so studios keep working and showrooms open on time. Packaging is taken away when we leave.
Phased projects
For larger studios we build in batches and deliver to your fit-out programme. Every carton is labelled by room, so each piece goes straight to its place.
After you move in
If a drawer needs adjusting or you add a few desks later, message us and we arrange a visit. Warranty terms depend on the product and are set out in your quotation.

Can you match furniture we already have?
Usually, yes. Send us photos, the sizes and, if possible, a sample of the finish, and we make new pieces to sit alongside your existing furniture. This is useful when a studio grows into the next unit.
Can freelancers and small studios buy from you?
Yes. Besides larger projects we sell at retail, from a single desk or ergonomic chair to a small studio set, delivered and assembled in d3.
How long does an order take?
It depends on whether the items are in stock or made to order, on samples and approvals, and on the size of the order. In-stock items can be delivered sooner; custom pieces are scheduled in production. We confirm the delivery date in your quotation, before you order.
