We moved in. The marble’s in, the lighting works, and the dogs have claimed their corners. With just a few finishing touches left—curtains, polishing, furniture deliveries—we’re living in the space and designing the rest from within. This is the phase where a house becomes a home, and every detail is tested, felt, and lived.

Week 5 of The Sculpted Abode marks a visible transformation: bathrooms tiled, ceilings closing, and a sculptural marble staircase taking shape. Carrara and Calacatta Paonazzo Verde set the rhythm across floors, while lighting and detail planning define flow. A story of craft, cohesion, and care — bringing our Dubai villa renovation closer to home.
