Choosing finishes that last in Qatar’s climate

Qatar’s climate is hard on colour, sealants and fabrics. A finish that looks right in a catalogue can fade, craze or hold dust within a season if it was specified for a milder place.

What we look for

• Stone and tile that can take thermal movement
• Fabrics with a tight weave and a realistic cleaning cycle
• Metals and coatings that do not chalk in strong sun
• Joinery details that keep dust out of edges

We specify interiors with the build, not after it, so the details that last are the ones that actually get installed.
