About Italian Style Qatar W.L.L.:

For us, architecture and interior are something more than the business of designing, overseeing construction and decorating a building. It's about creating a work of art - one that is inhabitable and a beautiful expression of the Client's needs and wishes. As a company with over 40-years experience in high-end interior fitout projects, we ensure that every detail is carefully considered and tailored to your requirements. Nothing escapes our notice, and no project, however big or small, is deemed complete until we are satisfied that it is faultless. We can manage every aspect of the entire process - beginning with an empty plot of land and ending with the arrangement of the furniture and final decoration and accessories. We are always the first to set foot on-site, and the last to leave and our Clients know we do not sign off a project until everything is exactly as it should be.
