The dark color scheme in the executive and junior suites includes brown oak, walnut, and metal bronze to give an executive, formidable identity. The presidential suite and three-bedroom apartments are resplendent with marble finishes that have been upgraded using black forest, magma black, corteccia, travertine, and ash blue to add a touch of intensity. The flexible spaces, enhanced by the floor-to-ceiling windows, make the rooms comfortable and liveable. The walls mix wood panels and textured material, enriching the rooms’ contemporary aesthetic. At Waldorf Astoria DIFC, the reception, restaurants, lounges, swimming pool, and spa are all located across one stretch of floor. However, the clever design layout ensures plenty of open space. The Hakas scope included the complete fit-out from shell and core – all architectural fit-out and finishes.
