When it comes to delivering standout interiors for luxury residences, boutique hotels, and high-end commercial spaces, having the right sourcing partner can make all the difference. Designers and architects strive to craft spaces that are distinctive, high-quality, and perfectly aligned with their clients' expectations. Achieving this vision, however, requires more than just creativity, it demands access to the best brands, support for customization, and a smooth, efficient procurement process.
This is where Design Space comes in. Acting as a bridge between designers and Europe’s most sought-after brands, Design Space helps turn bold design concepts into tangible realities. With a portfolio featuring exclusive partnerships with renowned brands like Kymo, Pinetti, Fasem, Ferri, Montbel, and many more, as well as collaborative access to other highly esteemed European names, Design Space offers an unparalleled range of products. This unique combination allows designers to deliver on their vision with precision and ease.
Here’s a look at six reasons why so many architects and interior designers choose to work with Design Space on their most ambitious projects.
1. Exclusive Access to Coveted Design Brands
The difference between a beautiful space and a truly memorable one often comes down to the brands behind the furniture, lighting, and accessories. While some pieces are instantly recognizable as icons of modern design, others are quietly crafted by niche manufacturers known only to industry insiders.
Design Space offers a unique proposition: exclusive access to premium European brands like Kymo, Pinetti, Fasem, FBC London, Montbel, and Ferri, alongside collaborative procurement opportunities for other esteemed names. Designers working with Design Space can skip the hassle of coordinating with multiple suppliers and instead rely on a single, trusted partner to source everything they need for their projects.

2. Bespoke Customization for Unforgettable Interiors
No two luxury projects are the same, and in many cases, off-the-shelf furniture simply won’t cut it. This is especially true for royal residences, private villas, and boutique hotels, where clients expect a level of uniqueness that reflects their taste and lifestyle. Customization, therefore, becomes essential—not just an option.
With Design Space, designers gain access to brands that embrace the art of tailor-made craftsmanship. Giorgetti’s refined craftsmanship, Carpanelli's artisanal furniture, and Pinetti's bespoke leather accessories allow designers to create something truly unique. Whether it's custom dimensions, material finishes, or bespoke upholstery, Design Space works directly with partner brands to make each request possible.
This ability to customize goes beyond mere aesthetics. It’s about enabling designers to respond to specific client requests, whether it’s fitting furniture to unusual layouts, matching particular color schemes, or creating custom finishes. From hand-carved wood pieces to oversized modular sofas, Design Space helps designers bring their creative vision to life.

3. Full-Service Procurement Support from Start to Finish
Design projects are a marathon, not a sprint. The journey from design concept to final installation is long, with multiple touchpoints that require coordination, follow-ups, and meticulous oversight. For designers and architects, this process can be incredibly time-consuming, especially when dealing with international suppliers.
Design Space transforms this experience with its end-to-end procurement service. Acting as a single point of contact for all sourcing needs, Design Space takes care of everything from:
Sourcing products from exclusive European brands.
Negotiating lead times and confirming availability.
Order consolidation to reduce shipping costs.
Customs clearance and delivery to the project site.
This service isn’t just about efficiency—it’s about control. Knowing that all furnishings, lighting, and accessories are being managed by a dedicated partner allows designers to focus on the creative aspects of their work, rather than being bogged down by operational details.

4. Faster Quoting, Faster Decisions
Speed is everything when working on tight deadlines. Designers need fast, accurate quotes so they can move forward with specifications and approvals. But in a world of extended production timelines and factory backlogs, waiting days (or weeks) for a supplier to respond can delay entire projects.
One of Design Space's standout features is its ability to provide fast, clear, and transparent quotes. Through established relationships with global brands, Design Space can offer designers:
Faster access to price lists and availability.
Custom quote requests for bespoke items.
Accurate lead times so designers can plan ahead.
This speed is particularly crucial during the early stages of project development, where design changes and client feedback can shift the direction of the project. Having quick access to quotes and delivery schedules allows designers to remain agile and responsive to client demands.

5. On-the-Ground Presence in the GCC
While many global brands and suppliers operate remotely, Design Space takes a more hands-on approach. With a local presence across the GCC region, Design Space provides in-person support for designers and procurement teams.
This local presence offers unique advantages:
Access to physical samples and materials: Designers can see and feel materials before placing an order.
Face-to-face project consultations: For larger projects, Design Space's team can meet with design firms and clients to review product options.
3D models and mockups: Before finalizing an order, designers can review 3D models of the items in question, ensuring everything fits perfectly within the overall design scheme.
This local support sets Design Space apart from international suppliers who may only provide online catalogs or sample swatches sent by mail. On-the-ground support speeds up decision-making and ensures designers feel confident in their choices.

6. A Partner That Solves Problems, Not Just Supplies Products
Every designer knows that large-scale projects are unpredictable. Items can be delayed, design briefs can change, and sometimes, replacements are needed at the last minute. Without a reliable partner to handle these changes, delays and extra costs are inevitable.
With Design Space, designers aren’t left scrambling. The team offers a level of problem-solving and proactive project management that most suppliers can’t match. From finding rapid replacements for delayed items to managing production changes on behalf of designers, Design Space works as a collaborative partner, not just a supplier.
This agile approach to problem-solving ensures that designers can stay on schedule, even when challenges arise. And with local support in the GCC, issues can be resolved on-site with speed and precision.
