Hotel biophilic design in Dubai

Dubai's landmark hotels compete on arrival moments, restaurants and photo-driven spaces. Hotel biophilic design brings planting programs to lobbies, restaurants, rooftops and guest-facing amenities, coordinated with hospitality timelines, public-space durability and ongoing maintenance.

Dubai hotel projects are delivered with an experienced local partner team and managed by The Foliage Co. The Foliage Co is operated by Interior Foliage Design, family-run since 1975 and based in New York. We review location, timing and scope for every project before proposing a design.

Designing for guests, brand standards and heat

In a hotel, greenery has to meet brand standards, survive constant guest traffic, and be installed without disturbing operations. In Dubai it also has to work with climate-controlled interiors and the strong sun on terraces and rooftops, where plant choice and shading decide what lasts.

  • Lobby plant programs that hold up to constant public use
  • Restaurant planting planned around service, sightlines and cleaning
  • Rooftop and terrace greenery selected for sun and heat exposure
  • Guest-facing install windows scheduled to avoid disrupting stays and service
  • Maintenance planned from the start so the design stays intact

From concept to ongoing care

A hotel program usually starts with the spaces guests photograph and remember, then extends across public areas. We plan the design, sourcing and installation together with the care program, because a biophilic concept is only as good as how it looks months after opening.

Installation and event projects start at the equivalent of US$10,000. Send us your spaces, drawings or photos and your timeline to start a project review.

Planning ahead of an opening or refresh

If the planting is tied to an opening, renovation or seasonal relaunch, bring us in early. Lead time lets us coordinate with the design team, agree brand standards, plan sourcing and schedule installation around pre-opening works or live operations. For existing hotels, we can phase work by area so public spaces stay presentable throughout.

  • Drawings or photos of each space
  • Brand standards or design references
  • Opening, renovation or refresh dates
  • Operating hours and preferred install windows
