The Curved Plaster Apartment, Dubai

Every hard edge in this home has been softened – walls curve into rounded columns, doorframes bow gently, and a sculptural circular shelving unit anchors the entry hall like a piece of pottery. Limewash-textured plaster covers the ceilings and walls in a warm, cloud-like finish, letting the tan leather bar stools and armchair provide the only real hits of color against an otherwise ivory and oak palette. The kitchen runs long and quiet, all flat-front cabinetry and a single waterfall-edge stone island, while the living area opens onto a terrace through sheer, floor-to-ceiling drapery. In the primary bedroom, the same soft plaster continues behind a boucle-upholstered bed, paired with a floor-to-ceiling mirrored dressing wall and a rounded leather ottoman. It’s restrained, tactile, and clearly built around texture rather than pattern.
