Crazy Metal’s Post

I've never been this thrilled about taps and toilets! Last Friday, the SOA Developments ladies and I headed to Dubai Design Week. While the designers dived into supplier chats and searched for the next “it” materials, I was snapping BTS content—and getting totally baffled by some of the latest in art and interiors. Picture this: baby pink taps and a futuristic, robotic toilet. I’m sold—once I’ve got a place of my own, I’ll be splurging, especially on that toilet. 👀 If you know me, you know I'm all about creating great content, but when it comes to my own home, it's a bit chaotic. With the talented SOA team giving me insights into what’s trending (and what’s timeless), I’m actually inspired to refresh my apartment with a bit more style. 🖌️ There’s something refreshing about stepping outside the office and surrounding yourself with other creatives—even from totally different industries. Looking outside your niche can spark the best ideas, and Dubai Design District did just that for me. Excited to make my home a bit less chaotic and a lot more creative! Time to get the SOA crew on board for my next bedroom shopping spree! 💸 #SOADevelopments #InteriorDesign #FitOut #Renovation #Marketing #SocialMediaMarketing #ContentMarketing #DubaiDesigners #HomeDesign

Can a single real estate transaction redefine an entire district? Whether in Paris or Dubai, the most exclusive properties continue to command astronomical prices, highlighting the relentless allure of luxury among the global elite. The latest record transaction: a penthouse within the prestigious The Lana residence, managed by Dorchester Collection, has sold for 139 million dirhams, approximately 35 million euros, setting a new benchmark in the iconic Burj Khalifa district. This architectural gem, designed by Foster + Partners with interiors by Gilles & Boissier, offers 1,541 square meters of elegance and grandeur spread across 4 bedrooms, each space encapsulating the essence of opulence and refinement. Situated between the coveted Burj Khalifa and Dubai Design Districts, this masterpiece overlooks the magnificent Marasi Bay promenade, renowned for its 12 kilometers of breathtaking scenery and yacht docking spaces. Despite a globally challenging real estate market, such transactions affirm that the appetite for luxury knows no bounds. As Mahdi Amjad, founder and chairman of Omniyat, aptly notes, 'Our vision is to create sculpted masterpieces through the exceptional talents of some of the most renowned designers. We combine meaning, aesthetics, innovation, and a unique narrative to craft rare experiences.' The high-end residential market remains remarkably resilient, exemplified by this stunning penthouse that redefines the standards of luxury in Dubai. #LuxuryLiving #DubaiRealEstate #BurjKhalifa #PenthouseLife #ExclusiveLiving #Architecture #DesignExcellence #gadait

How do you make a toilet visit more…disco?🕺🏾 It’s not what you might think 🤔 It’s all about finding a way to make the customer experience visible, memorable and exaggerated. Designers used to advocate “white” bathrooms because ❌ Hygiene: White shows dirt easily therefore emphasising when the “office” is clean. ❌ Versatility: White supposedly suits any design and feels timeless - white is neutral, practically “vanilla” ❌ Spaciousness: White reflects light, making bathrooms appear brighter and larger. We all need more space when we are concentrating 👀 However, some of better operators/designers are thinking more about immersive toilet action and look to create: 👍🏾 Unique Atmosphere: Creative designs and themes turn a mundane visit into an Instagram-worthy experience 👍🏾 Privacy and Comfort: Soundproofing and layouts provide a calming escape from the busy venue 👍🏾 Conversation Starter: Quirky designs spark fun discussions and enhance the nightlife vibe This is the immersive toilet experience at Aretha, St Regis, Dubai. What a wonderful night of 70’s soul and disco, half a dozen talented performers, a good-old fashioned dinner-dance! What’s not to love?❤️ PS. Does your toilet experience need a makeover? #dubai #toilet #immersive #fitness
