Interior design is the art and science of enhancing the interior of a building to achieve a healthier and more aesthetically pleasing environment for the people using the space. As an interior Architect, I design, plan, research, coordinates, and manage projects. Interior design includes conceptual development, space planning, site inspections, programming, research, communicating with the stakeholders of a project, construction management, and execution of the design.
Design reflects a person’s personality, lifestyle and experiences. Every project I have designed is unique and has a story to tell. With our knowledge and professionalism, my team and I tailor quality designs that fit our clients’ needs, style and taste.
My style has been described as “Modern”. I create warm, welcoming spaces.
Our goal is to create unique spaces while staying within the budget. From the smallest to my largest projects, my energy and dedication remain unwaived.
The relationship between a client and designer is very important to me. I ensure that the clients I work with feel safe and comfortable in order to create something magical that makes them both happy and satisfied.
Clean lines, reductive, uncluttered, monochromatic, simplicity, «less is more»- these are some of the terms and concepts that immediately come to mind when I think about my interiors.
I think minimalism and functionality go hand in hand. A minimalist-designed space incorporates an open floor plan, lots of light, and simple line furnishings that are well-built and comfortable. All these create a soothing and inviting space that has a timeless aesthetic.
The design needs to be clear and simple, but not boring. This is where the use of light, form and beautiful materials is so essential.
Al Thuriah Group entered into a joint venture agreement with Bank of Sharjah for the purpose of creating Muweileh Community and started executing the project on August 2019.
Muweileh is considered one of the significant Iron Age sites in the UAE.

Urban areas are well planned and structured to offer more residential space for the growing population in cities.
Muweileh Community resides right next to Sharjah’s beautiful University city and in the heart of “New Sharjah”, surrounded by different campuses, filled with a sense of community.
A large part of the student community and faculty lives within the area of university city, benefiting from the proximity to important landmarks including Sharjah International Airport and key road links to Dubai.
The project is surrounded by a variety of dining, leisure, entertainment and shopping options, anything the tenants desire is around the corner from their new home.
“Urban living provides better standards of living”.
This is where beautiful stories begin and memories are made, filled with friendly gatherings and quality time. Muweileh community is the type of community that offers a lifestyle that integrates a modern living provides a wide range of restaurants, and cafes.
It is comprised of 8 whole buildings with two types; A and B consisting of residential units with unique interior spaces along with a community center.
The community is built to provide the best living environment, with safety and transparency, it allows the guest to fit right in.
It?s just as unique as its exterior. It takes guests back in time where sophistication and elemental simplicity were the golden standard! From the kitchen, to the dining area, to the living room, to all bedrooms and bathrooms, the style, the design and function are very consistent and harmonious.
The Community Center’s objective is to host a multipurpose space that residents can use to enjoy social, cultural, and recreational activities. (Central leasing office, 24hrs Facilities Management office, Auditorium, Social facility spaces that could be used to arrange private tutoring, group projects or meetings. Landscaped area, Swimming pool, Shaded seating areas, Separate men and ladies gyms) The buildings are cladded with modern porcelain concrete finish tiles, jotun paint at some parts and clear glass.
The interior of the buildings reflects the exterior. The main entrance lobbies and the community entrances are designed to give tenants a sense of simplicity in every element, including furniture.
The finished interiors offer a captivating visual feast a Modern urban style design with a touch of an industrial feeling. The colors used throughout the project are mostly neutral concrete finish, oak wooden strips and greige floorings with a vibrant yellow pop color on the walls arranged to perfectly complement one another.
In the world of interior engineering and velvety decoration, few creators in the world are distinguished and leave an imprint that cannot be erased by time.
From Al Manzel Al Arabi Company in front of connoisseurs for engineering art in the distinguished magazine of the world of decoration, Interior design Engineer Mohamed Hassan is known for his great passion in presenting bold and varied ideas, classic and modern, especially through his designs for luscious and beautiful forms of artistic accessories that complement the interior decoration, where he managed to implement these distinctive pieces to a high degree of accuracy until these touches turned into masterpieces distributed throughout his projects all of them are from the main entrance of a modern home to the bedroom. In fact, large engineering projectsusually need an innovative interior designer.
Usually, the large areas impose themselves on this engineer, and puts him in a big test that does not spare many of his conspicuous engineers and traps the rest of them.
The dining room is the meeting place of the family and a place designated to receive guests in invitations and events, and it is one of the rooms that the homeowners are most interested in, and for this dining room various colors have been used, ranging from light beige and off white, which is a very quiet and elegant mix in the dining room.
Perhaps it is too early to imagine with all this distinguished creativity, where the full picture lies in the touches of the interior decorator Mohamed Hassan and Al Manzel Al Arabi Company in the emirate of Ras Al Khaimah, as it bypassed the emirate to implement many projects in all the country and abroad as well.
In his new project, Engineer Mohamed Hassan mimics the artistic touches and draws a new line for interior engineering.

The RIBA has launched a major contest to rethink the future of small to medium-sized stations across the Network Rail estate [Deadline: 15 September 2020]
The three-stage competition invites architects, engineers and designers to draw up a range of solutions to ensure local stations – which vary in quality across Great Britain – better serve the needs of both passengers and their local communities while also supporting net zero sustainability targets and delivering outstanding value.
The contest follows the publication of a Think Station report compiled by the Design Council through a series of industry workshops outlining a fresh approach to the design, development and procurement of local stations. Network Rail manages around 2,000 small to medium-sized local stations across England, Wales and Scotland – representing 80 per cent of its overall portfolio.
” Our ambition is to raise the quality of design across the whole rail network as well as responding to the evolving role of infrastructure within communities. ”
A. Dewar, Head of Buildings & Architecture, Network Rail
” This competition will help build the railway of tomorrow, ensuring we continue to modernise and improve our railway, making it welcoming and accessible for all passengers. ”
C. Heaton-Harris, Rail Minister
There are more than 2,000 small to medium-sized stations across Britain, varying greatly in their design quality and amenities. By improving the overall quality of stations, they can better serve their communities, whilst accommodating potential enhancements to the existing and future passenger experience through good design.
Designs should be considered for the adaptation of existing stations to better meet passenger requirements, or newly built stations to accommodate the projected increase in demand for rail travel.
The competition is open internationally to individuals and teams from both small and large organisations from the design, built environment and manufacturing industries.
On the judging panel will be:
Lucy Musgrave OBE, (Founding Director of Publica)

Accessories play a very important role in completing and paying off the design.This is where we add the finishing touches, bring out the client’s personality and create the desired textures, shapes and colors to complete the decor.
These are the final details. Stopping short of this very important final step is much like getting dressed up without putting on jewelry or shoes.
A dressing room is much more than just a closet. A closet is a place where you keep your clothes; a dressing room is a place to enjoy your clothes.
This dressing cupboard has many intelligent organizing solutions to ensure the contents of the wardrobe appear neat and worthy of display.

A dining room and a piano always make a luxurious combination.
The dining room is one of the most important rooms in any home, the place where the entire family converges to share a meal, and where friends and guests are entertained for purposes of socialization over a meal.
The dining room is an important part of the house. Here the family gathers for lunch, or for dinner. Here we discuss common plans and the events of the day. Many family celebrations are held in the dining room.
So that is why when you are going to change its appearance, you should be very careful.
In the interior of the dining room and living room, everything must be perfect and thought out to the smallest detail.
You should carefully select furniture and tableware, as well as lights, curtains, and various decor elements all should be chosen with taste and harmoniously fit into the overall design.
Add a touch of luxury to your home, starting with your bathroom. Regardless of your taste,
this secluded space is a perfect spot for some much needed contemporary glam. If you dream of a luxury bathroom that’s indulgent and relaxing, where you can unwind after a long day, find inspiration and ideas in this bathroom.

With our help, you can make this a reality! All you need to do is contact Charles Interiors, and we will create the best family sitting room design for you.
تبدأ العقبات من أول يوم نخوضه في أي مجال ولا تنتهي فعليا، فغالبا تجربة أي مشاريع وأفكار جديدة تتطلب مواجهة عقبات مختلفة وعلى سبيل المثال للحصر: كان موضوع الحصول على المواد والخامات ليس بالأمر السهل كما هو الأن.
هل اعتمدت خطاً معيناً وأسلوباً خاصاً بك منذ البداية ام انك اخترت مدرسة هندسية معينة ؟
من الطبيعي أن يكون لكل مهندس أو مصمم أسلوبه الخاص الذي يعبر عنه, غالبا ما تأتي تصاميمي بطابع بسيط وفخم، فالبساطة والفخامة هم من أهم ميزات أسلوبي الهندسي.
المخزون البصري لأي مهندس هو من أهم العناصر التي يستوحي منها الأفكار والتصاميم حيث تبدأ هذه الملكية البصرية بالتكون مند الصغر والتطور يوميا وتتغذى بالأسفار والاطلاع على كل ما هو جديد.
ما هو اسلوبك بالتحديد هل هو الأسلوب الكلاسيكي في الديكور أم تفضل العصري؟
لا يمكن حصر المهندس في أسلوب واحد فقط و من هنا تأتي أهمية أن يكون المصمم أو المهندس على دراية في جميع الأساليب وأن يكون لديه القدرة في تلبية متطلبات العميل سواء كانت كلاسيكية أم عصرية، علما أنني أميل الى الأسلوب الكلاسيكي غير المعقد أو المتكلف.
على مهندس الديكور أن يتسم بمجموعة من الصفات على سبيل المثال و ليس للحصر: الصبر, الدقة, المرونة, الابتكار و تذليل الصعوبات وأهمها أن يكون لديه القدرة على فهم تطلعات العميل وتحويل أفكاره الى وقائع.
ماذا يفضل المواطن الاماراتي، التصاميم الكلاسيكية، الحديثة أم النيوكلاسيكية؟
كانت الفكرة السائدة أن المواطن الاماراتي يميل الى التصاميم الكلاسيكية الا أنه جليٌ بالاونة الأخيرة ان القسم الأكبر من المواطنين و خاصة الشباب يميلون الى التصميم النيو كلاسيكي أو العصري.
الديكور هو عبارة عن عملية متدرجة فعادة ما يكون الزبون شريكا فيها من الخطوة الأولى مما يتسنى له متابعة العمل منذ البدء بالتصميم الى الاختيار للألوان و المواد وانتهاء بتنفيذ العينات في الموقع ومن شأن ذلك تقليل نسبة الخطأ أو رفضه من قبل العامل.
تتطلع تشاراز انيتريورز دائما لتصميم وتنفيذ مشاريع استثنائية وأشخاص استثنائيين مثلا نصمم كأمثال مصمم الأزياء العالمي ايلي صعب هو من الشخصيات التي نطمح لوضع بصمتنا في احدى مشاريعه.
هناك من يتباهى من المهندسين بوضع أكبر كم ممكن من التحف الأثرية في تصاميمه، ما رأيك؟
لا يعتبر الافراط في استخدام التحف الأثرية في أي تصميم معياراً لتقييم التصميم بشكل عام, فاعتماد مبدأ القطعة المناسبة في المكان المناسب هو أهم قاعدة لتنفيذ تصميم راق.
هل نفذت مشاريع في الخارج او في ارجاء الوطن العربي؟
عمدت تشارلز انتريور منذ انطلاقتها بكل حرص على تنفيذ مشاريع في مختلف البلدان نذكر منها: لبنان, سوريا, الامارات العربية المتحدة, قطر, مصر, المملكة العربية السعودية, الكويت, نيجيريا, غانا و الولايات المتحدة الأميركية.
ما مدى تأثير البيئة التي عشت فيها على أعمالك أو ألوانك؟
من الطبيعي أن يكون للبيئة التي نشأ فيها المصمم تأثير قوي في أعماله وأن تنعكس بطريقة استخدامه للألوان حيث أن نشأتي في جو مليء بالتراث العربي كان له انعكاس مباشر على تصاميمي.
هنالك العديد من الأساسيات التي يجب الاعتماد عليها في أي تصميم فمثلا: اتجاه الرياح, حركة الشمس, البيئة المحيطة كذلك الهدف من استخدام المساحة و عدد الأشخاص الذين سيقومون باستخدامها.
من الطبيعي أن يكون لصاحب المشروع تأثير كبير على التصميم, فدائما ما يكون لدى العميل تصور معين ومتطلبات محددة وهنا يأتي دور المصمم المبدع ليلعب دوره في تجسيد أفكار العميل و بلورتها بأجمل وسيلة ممكنة.
إلى أي درجة تعتقد أن الديكور يرتبط بالحالة النفسية؟ يعني هل يجب ان تكون في حالة نفسية معينة حتى تمارس عملية التصميم أم أن لكل حالة انعكاساتها ؟
من الطبيعي أن ترتبط حالة الابداع ارتباطا وثيقا بالحالة النفسية حيث أن لكل مهندس و مصمم طقوسه الخاصة ليصل الى حالة الالهام والابداع. شخصيا دائما ما ألجأ الى الطبيعة و الهدوء للبحث عن أفكار و ابداعات جديدة.
لأي درجة يمكن لك أن تتقبل فكرة قيامك بتصميم ديكور خارج عن عالمك الخاص الذي تفضّله؟
على المهندس أن يكون مطواعا وقادرا على التعامل مع مختلف أنواع المشاريع حتى لو لم تكن ضمن عالمه الخاص, وغالبا ما أسعى جاهدا الى اضفاء لمستي الخاصة على أي مشروع حتى لو كان بعيدا عن هويتي الفنية.
كيف ترى علاقة الديكور كحالة إبداعية مع حالته للكسب المادي؟
على الرغم من أن السوق الاماراتي و العالمي مكتظ بعدد كبير من المهندسين و المصممين الا أنه يبقى الطلب على المصمم المبدع أكثر بكثير من الاخرين وبالتالي فإن ارتباط الكسب المادي بالحالة الابداعية هو وثيق وعكسي.
يولد الإنسان مع مجموعة من الأحلام التي تزداد وتتطور يوميا ولا يجب على أي مصمم أو مهندس أن يكف عن الحلم فهو الدافع الأساسي للتطور. بالنسبة لي يمكنني القول إنني والحمدلله على طريق تنفيذ العديد من الأحلام و الطموحات.
دائما ما أطمح الى تطوير جميع الجوانب الحياتية فمثلا من الناحية العملية طموحي هو التوسع و الانتشار عالميا ووضع بصمة شارلز انتريور في مشاريع تخدم البشرية, أما من الناحية الشخصية فطموح تشكيل عائلة هو من الأهداف المستقبلية.
عادة ما يمر مع الانسان العديد من الطرائف في مجال عمله، يمكنني استحضار حادثة حصلت معي في أثناء سفري الى احدى المدن الافريقية لمقابلة أحد العملاء حيث اكتشفت أنه متجه على الطائرة نفسها و بالمقعد المحادي لي و إن كلينا مسافر لنفس الغاية فتم عقد الاجتماع في الطائرة.
The project by Marco Piva with Planarch provides for the construction of a vast level covering of all the area between the buildings, thus forming an internal steel and glass “covered piazza” that visually connects the interior and the buildings containing the rooms that face the “piazza” and vice versa. The Tower, with its circular shape and height of 64 meters for 15 floors, is Suite Building and the dominating feature of the surrounding landscape.
The project was developed around 3 natural elements, water, stone and light, which are interpreted so as to convey an “archaic sense” of wellbeing.
In particular the use of the stone on floors and walls produces a light relief design which vibrates with the light.
