Richard Hamilton, founder of Hamilton International Holdings,
arrived in Dubai in 1992 and formed Hamilton Design Studio.
Over time, he realised there was a gap in the market for quality
fit-out contractors to ensure good delivery on Hamilton’s
designs. Hamilton International began offering Clients a total
design and build service.
Hamilton International has grown into a respected diverse
interior design and fit - out business. The dynamic interconnected
specialist teams focus and collaborate to deliver exceptional
customer service to Social Infrastructure, Corporate and
Leisure markets. Hamilton International blend
creativity, experience, innovations and sound commercial
principles to create projects that shape businesses. The

Hamilton International Design consists of a team of dedicated professionals providing innovative design solutions for a broad range of projects;
corporate affairs, banking, social infrastructure, hospitality, healthcare, retail and
showrooms being some of the sectors Hamilton International have worked on
in recent years.
Hamilton International Design prides itself on a fresh and unique approach
to all projects. The Design team at Hamilton International bring a wealth of
worldwide expertise enabling the team to explore ideas from other cultures and
push the design limits by thinking individually and collectively, always arriving at
a point that challenges creativity and design limits and also exceeding clients’
expectations.
The team at Hamilton International Design have a vast knowledge of the
Construction process and an unrivalled knowledge of the GCC market. This
has allowed Hamilton International to develop expertise in Value Engineering
projects. Value Engineering is a systematic method to improve the ‘value’ of
a design by using an examination of function and form. This method involves
examining the materials, construction methods, and locally sourcing alternative
products and materials to deliver a building, which is identical in look and
feel to the original design but significantly less expensive resulting in massive
savings to Hamilton International’s clients.
At Hamilton International the focus is primarily on the ‘Total Customer Experience’
and through a series of debriefing sessions, Hamilton International review all
aspects of the job and take on board comments and feedback. This allows
Hamilton International to constantly upgrade and improve their services.
