The Wave Penthouse

Shortlisted: Interior Design Scheme - Middle East & Africas

The International Design & Architecture Awards 2026

Asara Studio developed a refined contemporary penthouse defined by sculptural forms, layered textures, bespoke detailing and a calm, immersive spatial experience. The design approach focused on balancing sculptural expression with warmth, comfort and functionality to create a home that feels elegant and artistic while remaining closely connected to everyday living.

Soft neutral tones form the foundation of the interior, layered with textured finishes, warm wood elements, natural stone surfaces and carefully curated lighting. These materials create depth and visual calmness throughout the penthouse. Organic forms and fluid lines are a consistent design language, expressed through custom wall features, curved furniture, bespoke joinery details and sculptural decorative elements.

A strong emphasis was placed on atmosphere and visual movement across the spaces. Bespoke wallcoverings and artistic feature installations were developed specifically for the project, reinforcing its sculptural identity. The open plan living areas are designed to feel connected and immersive while maintaining intimacy through considered material layering and integrated lighting schemes.

Furniture, accessories and styling were carefully curated from varied sources to achieve a timeless, collected aesthetic rather than a showroom appearance. Handcrafted rugs, decorative objects, contemporary lighting and tailored furnishings add individuality and depth throughout.

The penthouse responds to its coastal urban setting through open spatial planning, soft organic forms and a restrained palette that enhances light, openness and tranquillity. The project required bespoke joinery craftsmanship, custom wallcovering design and printing, integrated lighting coordination, tailored upholstery work, metal fabrication and precise material detailing. The result is a sophisticated contemporary penthouse where sculptural design and curated materiality combine to create a calm, immersive and timeless residential environment.
