Studio Apartment Interior Design in Dubai
One Room Planned to Live, Sleep and Work In

A studio has to be your bedroom, living room, dining area and office at the same time. Liger Interiors plans studio layouts, storage and furniture so each of those jobs has its own place, and the room still feels open. We design, source and install everything, then hand over a studio that is ready to live in.

THE STUDIO CHALLENGE

One Room, Four Jobs

Regular furniture and ordinary layouts do not work in a studio. Every piece must earn its floor space, storage has to be built in rather than added on, and the bed needs to feel separate from where you eat and work, without building walls.

We start by asking how you actually use the space: whether you cook, work from home or host guests. Then we plan zones, storage and furniture around that. Many studio problems come from a few common errors. Our list of studio apartment design mistakes to avoid shows what to watch for.

Space-Saving Furniture That Works in Dubai Studios

Sofa beds

A proper sofa by day and a bed at night. Choose one that is comfortable for both.

Murphy beds

Fold into the wall so the sleeping area becomes living space. See more space-saving bed designs.

Fold-down dining tables

Wall-mounted tables that open for meals and close flat afterwards.

Tall shelving

Storage that goes up, not out, keeping the floor open.

Storage ottomans

Seating with space inside for blankets, books and extras.

Lift-top coffee tables

Rise to desk or dining height, with storage underneath.

We measure before choosing anything, so every piece fits with walking space around it. Learn more about our furniture selection service.

Our Studio Design Process

01

Visit and consultation

We measure the studio and ask how you live: cooking, working from home, guests, and your budget.

02

Design and 3D

A floor plan, 3D views and a full price list. We adjust until you approve.

03

Build and install

We order furniture, build storage and manage the work, sending photo updates as it progresses.

04

Styling and handover

Furniture placed, art hung, shelves styled, then a walkthrough with care and warranty information.

Affordable or Luxury: Studio Design for Every Budget

Affordable Studio Design

We put the budget where it shows most: paint, lighting, a few well-chosen pieces and good storage. Furniture that looks more expensive than it is.

Luxury Studio Design

Premium materials, designer furniture, custom storage, quality appliances and layered lighting for a boutique-hotel feel.

Studio Design Questions

Have another question? Message us on WhatsApp or read what is included in interior design services.

It depends on whether you need design only, decoration, or design with built-in storage and renovation, and on the furniture level you choose. We give you a full price list after the site visit. See our apartment renovation cost guide for typical ranges.

In a small space, mistakes cost more because there is no room to hide them: a sofa that is too big or storage that does not fit blocks the whole room. Read do you need an interior designer for a small space to decide.

Yes. Our decor service changes furniture, colours, curtains, lighting and storage without building work, which suits tenants and quick refreshes.

Yes, with a compact desk, wall storage and task lighting placed away from the bed. Fold-away and lift-top desks close the office after work. See home office ideas for small rooms.

Furniture, curtains, rugs, lighting, free-standing storage and styling can all change without the landlord’s approval. Built-in joinery, flooring and ceiling work usually need permission from the landlord and building management.

Yes. We choose durable, easy-to-clean finishes and furniture that photographs well. See our Airbnb interior design guide and holiday-home furnishing service.
