Interior Design Companies in Dubai — FAQ
How much do interior designers charge in Dubai?
Interior design fees in Dubai vary by scope — some charge a design fee (often 8-15% of build cost), others fold it into a design-and-build package. First Unicorn gives a transparent design fee plus a fixed build BOQ after a consultation.
Do you design and build, or only design?
Both. We're a design-and-build studio, so concept, 3D visuals, sourcing and execution come under one fixed-price contract — no gap between designer and contractor.
How long does an interior design project take?
Design typically takes 3-6 weeks; build depends on scope. We provide a written programme with milestones and a handover date.
Do you do residential and commercial interiors?
Yes — villas, apartments, penthouses, offices, retail and F&B, all handled by the same in-house design-and-build team.
