Why Dark Decor
Your home is a lifetime project — it is no place for experiments
Most painful finishing stories in Riyadh share one cause: a lump-sum quote, followed by “extras”. We work the opposite way — an itemised quote, line by line: material, brand, quantity and workmanship. What you sign is what you pay.
Second: one team. Gypsum, painting, electrical and plumbing are under our management on one schedule — you never become the project coordinator. One person answers you, with photo updates on WhatsApp.
We finish new villas from shell, customise developer apartments and refurbish existing homes — including flooring (parquet and porcelain), wallpaper, skirting and marble alternative panels.
Finishing levels
Choose the level — we tune the rest
Indicative ranges per square metre; the final price follows the site visit and drawings.
Economy — SAR 700–900/m²
Good local materials and careful workmanship without complex details — the build quality never drops.
Mid (Deluxe) — SAR 900–1,300/m²
First-grade porcelain, gypsum with concealed lighting, branded paints and wall-panel feature walls. Around 10–14 weeks.
Luxury — from SAR 1,300/m²
Imported materials, decorative paints, custom feature walls and architectural lighting. See luxury interiors.

New villas
Plaster, electrical and plumbing, insulation, flooring, gypsum, painting, doors and décor — turnkey.
Developer apartments
Turn a standard developer apartment into a home that feels like you: custom ceilings, feature walls and your colours.
Existing homes
A full refresh without demolition — and if there is damage we start with repair and treatment.
Floors & annexes
An upper floor, guest annex or rest house — the same method on a smaller scope and faster schedule.
