Interior designers work with Saint Objets, a French made-to-order furniture studio in Dubai, as a specification partner rather than a showroom. Designed in Paris and made in the Emirates, each piece is built to the designer's drawings, palette, and toxic-free, hospitality-grade fabric brief, then delivered as a trade collaboration by appointment.
How a Made-to-Order Studio Works
A made-to-order studio changes the designer's role from selecting a finished object to co-authoring one. With Saint Objets, the conversation begins with the drawing, and the studio translates it into a buildable piece. Because the work is designed in Paris and made in the Emirates, revisions happen in dialogue rather than across a long import chain.
A designer usually arrives with one of the following:
- A moodboard
- A floor plan
- A section detail
What We Specify for the Scheme
Dimensions follow the room, not a fixed catalogue, and every material choice is documented so a client can approve it without hesitation. The studio specifies each piece against the brief:
- Dimensions drawn to the room rather than a fixed catalogue size
- Fabric chosen against the brief, from a performance, hospitality-grade cloth for a high-traffic lobby to a softer hand for a private residence
- Materials held to a toxic-free, safe, non-toxic standard the designer can put in front of a client
Working Together on Trade Terms
For a trade partner, this is a working relationship, not a transaction. The studio operates by appointment, so a designer books time before anything is committed to production, and specifications are documented so the piece can be reordered coherently across a scheme or a phased fit-out.
An appointment gives the designer time to review:
- Upholstery
- Proportions
- Finishes
One Studio, from Spec Sheet to Finished Piece
The same rigour that shaped hospitality projects and a NOYA interior collaboration is applied to a single custom sofa. Designers who want the full framework, from trade terms to how a spec sheet becomes a finished object, can start on the dedicated page for interior designers.
Frequently asked questions
Can an interior designer specify custom dimensions and fabric with Saint Objets?
Yes. Saint Objets is a made-to-order French studio in Dubai, so designers specify dimensions to suit the room and select from toxic-free, hospitality-grade fabrics against their own brief. Each piece is built to the designer's drawings, designed in Paris and made in the Emirates.
Does Saint Objets work on trade terms with design studios?
Yes. Saint Objets collaborates with interior designers as a trade partner rather than a retail showroom. The studio works by appointment, documents specifications for coherent reordering across a scheme, and supports both single custom pieces and larger fit-outs. Full trade details sit on our furniture for interior designers in Dubai page.
Where can designers see Saint Objets pieces?
At Decoroom, Art of Living Mall, Dubai, where the design consultation is complimentary and a designer is available by appointment. The Dubai Design District studio receives by appointment. Designers book time to review proportions, upholstery, and finishes before production begins, which keeps each made-to-order commission precise and aligned with the client scheme rather than pulled from stock.
