Corporate Office Fit-Out, Al Raha, Abu Dhabi

KOJ Interiors delivered the interior fit-out of a corporate office for an engineering firm in Al Raha, Abu Dhabi, 3,000 sq m across two floors. The office was designed by a third-party consultant, with KOJ’s MEP engineer involved from the design stage to handover, and KOJ built the fit-out.

The project is part of our fit-out work in Abu Dhabi.

Brief

A corporate workplace for an engineering firm in the Al Raha district, delivered across two floors of an occupied tower.

Scope

A shell-and-core fit-out, beginning with demolition.

Works included smooth and acoustic perforated gypsum ceilings, PET baffle ceilings, fire-rated bulkheads to the curtain wall, partitions, glass, floors, joinery, doors and blinds, as well as signage, graphics, artwork and plants. The mechanical and electrical package covered power, lighting, air conditioning, plumbing, fire alarm and fire-fighting, emergency lighting, data, audiovisual systems, access control and commissioning. Furniture was added to the scope as a variation.

Programme

The baseline programme of about 115 days was set in October 2025. Work started in late 2025, and the fit-out was physically complete by July 2026. The tower remained occupied throughout the works.

Challenges

Demolition required a landlord no-objection certificate, and the electrical schematics were approved by ADDC/TAQA. The completed floors went through final Civil Defence (ADCD) testing and the Abu Dhabi Municipality (ADM) inspection. For how approvals usually run in the emirate, see our Abu Dhabi office fit-out approvals guide.

With the tower occupied, the site team worked around a shared goods lift and the building’s security arrangements.

Long-lead items included joinery (about 79 days), furniture, lights and carpet, with materials arriving by sea freight.

Existing landlord fan-coil units were reused. After handover, KOJ worked with the landlord on a joint inspection and an independent performance review of the chilled-water system, as part of coordination with the base-build services.

Finishes

Built to the consultant’s design, the finishes include laminate joinery, 6 mm luxury vinyl tile (LVT) wood plank in two plank sizes, carpet tiles, acoustic gypsum and a 12 mm PET baffle ceiling.

Outcome

A 3,000 sq m corporate office across two floors in Al Raha, Abu Dhabi, delivered to a third-party design with KOJ’s MEP engineer involved from design to handover, and physically complete by July 2026.
