The Project

Sotheby’s new gallery space in the DIFC consists of approximately 300 sqm. The space that was chosen had a purpose differing from Sotheby’s requirement and had to be re-designed to meet the bespoke needs of the auction house. As the space is a gallery, several elements from the positioning of certain architectural elements to complement the natural light entering the space and MEP requirements had to be taken into consideration to ensure that the gallery would be an accommodating layout for the different varieties of artworks and artifacts that would eventually be featured within.

Our Appointment

We were appointed to carry out the project management for pre and post contract as well as commercial management services for the project. We were brought into this project after works had already commenced. The project was experiencing delays due to lack of a central contact to drive the project forward. Once we were brought into this project, we were able to quickly identify the stalls within the programme and restart the workflows. We were proactive on site and liaised between the client and the DIFC to ensure that the work quality respected our client’s needs.

The Benefit

We worked closely with this client to bring the project to fruition and swiftly re-align the project on programme. From an operational cost perspective, each passing day without completion is another day of financial loss. We understand the end result is not the assignment itself but the business success that completion can lead to. We assisted the client in every aspect to ensure the successful delivery of their project. Creating a premium gallery space for their sales that upholds the prestige of the Sotheby’s brand was carried out by our team to the great satisfaction of the client.
