Al Kabeer Corporate Head Office

Kayfi Shop’s Fashion Studio / Muscat / Oman

We created a full-functioning fashion design studio complete with designer workstations, garment rooms, tailoring, archives, photography and a laundry. The admin side included cabins for various directors, and HR managers and an e-commerce room. We also created a wide corridor at the centre of the office to facilitate a fashion ramp when required. There are multiple pantries for break-out and coffee and plenty of in-built storage. Four sections of mobile writing walls were created in the design room to help plan out schedules.

 

Design Stage Deliverables

  • Space planning is a fundamental element of our design process. It starts with an in-depth analysis of how the space is to be used. We then draws up a plan that defines the zones of the space and the activities that will take place in those zones.

  • Technical representation of the space including layouts, elevations, reflected ceiling plans and flooring plans.

  • Detailed design is the phase where the design is refined and plans, specifications are created. Detailed design will include outputs such as 2D and 3D models, final dimensions etc. This phase is where the full extent of the project is identified.

  • Rendering is the final process of creating the actual 2D image or animation from the prepared scene. This can be compared to taking a photo or filming the scene after the setup is finished in real life.

  • The material selection process is a complicated exercise that aims at selecting a set of materials from a large pool of candidate materials while taking into consideration a large number of factors.

  • Custom or bespoke joinery involves making customised timber items to fit individual requirements. Bespoke joinery can include any wooden products which are designed and fabricated to precise specifications. Many bespoke joinery items are designed to optimise space in a building.

  • In addition to built-in furniture, we also design project-specific loose furniture to suit the rhythm of the place.

  • None of the design elements makes sense without a balanced lighting design. We have been exploring lighting design down to the Lux Calculations for years.

  • We provide material schedules and specifications to precisely describe project parameters.

Project Management Services

  • The bill of quantities is issued to tenderers for them to prepare a price for carrying out the fit-out work. It assists them in the calculation of construction costs for their tender, and, as it means all tendering contractors will be pricing the same quantities (rather than taking-off quantities from the drawings and specifications themselves), it also provides a fair and accurate system for tendering.

  • Tender documents will be broken down into a series of packages (even if there will only be one main contract) each with its own design drawings, renderings, bill of quantities and specifications suitable to be issued by the client to potential sub-contractors. This makes the tender easier for the contractor to price and easier for the client to compare with other tenderers.

  • We have a recommended list of contractors whose portfolios and capabilities are vetted.

    Tender documents and issued to them and once the tenders are submitted the process of careful assessment begins to select the preferred contractor for the project.

  • Procurement is the sourcing, budgeting, purchasing, delivery and installation of furniture, fixtures and equipment in projects. We provide the service for a percentage fee.

  • We review material approval sheets and samples submitted by contractors and also review their shop drawings.

  • We schedule a weekly or fortnightly visit to the site to ensure compliance and procedural correctness.

  • Our commitment to projects overflows into whatever the assistance the owner may require, be it assiance to selecting the right OS&E or even help with branding.
