HM Residence by NORS design

NORS design is a boutique interior architecture studio distinguished by its refined aesthetic, attention to detail, and passion for creating spaces of lasting sophistication. Founded in the United Arab Emirates in 2022, the firm brings together over two decades of creative and operational expertise through its founding partners, Sahar Ghazale and Rabi Samad. Their long-standing collaboration and shared vision have positioned NORS design as a trusted name in high-end residential and commercial interiors across the MENA and GCC regions.

At the core of the firm’s success is a flawless integration of design distinction and precise execution. As Creative Director, Sahar Ghazale draws on her background in interior architecture to lead each project with conceptual clarity and a nuanced understanding of space, materiality, and lifestyle. Her approach is holistic—bridging conceptual design with on-site oversight and an eye for curated finishes that elevate everyday living.

Managing Director Rabi Samad complements this creative foundation with strategic oversight and deep procurement expertise. With a background in business and years of experience managing large-scale furnishing and materials operations, he ensures the firm delivers both artistic integrity and operational precision.

NORS design offers comprehensive interior architecture services, from initial concept development and technical detailing to furniture sourcing and project supervision. Their award-winning HM Residence in Kuwait exemplifies this integrated model. Commissioned as a multi-generational home, the project balances architectural drama with quiet elegance—featuring bespoke elements, custom furnishings, and sustainable materials such as natural stone, wood veneers, and solar integration.

The firm’s ability to deliver immersive environments with both regional sensitivity and international polish has led to a growing portfolio across Kuwait, Qatar, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE. Their work is characterized by an enduring design language—one that avoids fleeting trends in favor of enduring quality, comfort, and sophistication.

As NORS design expands its reach, it remains dedicated to creating interiors that are not only visually compelling but deeply personal—spaces that reflect the lives, values, and aspirations of the people who inhabit them.
