About

More than just interior designers, we design spaces that inspire and enhance human experiences, driven by an entrepreneurial spirit.

Introduction

In 1988, Daya started as a small family business in Singapore. Today, we are a leading interior design and fitout firm based in Qatar, one of the world's fastest-growing regions. We source large-scale carpentry from our facilities in Vietnam & consolidate in our fabrication factory in Qatar, and we've recently integrated brand and technology into our services in Qatar. Over the years, we’ve proudly partnered with major brands like Schneider, Exxon Mobil, and Intercontinental Hotels, transforming spaces with our innovative approach.

Philosophy

Designing business
spaces that serve
and inspire.

Our success is rooted in a user-centric approach. We believe every space we design should meet the needs of its occupants, whether they are office workers, medical patients, or retail customers. Equally important is aligning our designs with our clients' business goals, creating environments that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also strategically beneficial.

Team

Interior space experts
‍who know brand
and tech. Driven by
shared empathy.

Our team is a collective of specialists in space, brand, and technology, united by shared values. We create new spaces from the ground up or renovate existing ones. Whether it's a café with a meaningful story or a tech startup office designed for agile working, we handle it all with empathy and expertise.
