At Empower Design Co., we believe that good design does more than meet a standard — it changes lives.
We specialize in inclusive design across the UAE, helping homeowners, developers, and hospitality leaders create spaces that serve everyone — especially People of Determination. From luxury villas to boutique hotels, we provide practical and aesthetic design solutions that promote independence, comfort, and long-term usability.
Our approach is grounded in Australia’s SDA (Specialist Disability Accommodation) framework and tailored for the cultural, architectural, and regulatory landscape of the United Arab Emirates.
Inclusive design is the practice of creating spaces that are accessible to as many people as possible — regardless of physical, sensory, cognitive, or mental health differences.
Rather than retrofitting a space after construction, we work with architects, interior designers, and clients from the early stages of planning to build access into the foundation of the project.
Our goal is to make inclusive design a hallmark of modern living in the UAE, not an afterthought.
01.
We start by understanding your project’s goals, whether you’re building a new home for a family member with additional needs or designing a hospitality space that welcomes every guest.
02.
We apply internationally recognized SDA design categories — including considerations for physical mobility, sensory sensitivities, and cognitive accessibility — and integrate them into your architectural vision.
03.
Our consultants work closely with your design and build teams to ensure compliance, practical functionality, and visual appeal.
04.
We offer formal feedback on layouts, drawings, and product choices, ensuring the final design meets both accessibility goals and lifestyle expectations.
Every detail is intentional — and designed to support dignity, independence, and safety for People of Determination.
Dubai and Abu Dhabi are rapidly developing cities, known globally for innovation. Yet many homes and buildings still follow outdated design norms that unintentionally exclude people.
From family villas in Jumeirah to boutique hotels in Al Ain, the demand for accessible spaces is growing — and expectations are rising.
With Dubai’s commitment to being the world’s most accessible city and the UAE’s growing number of elderly residents and People of Determination, inclusive design is now a strategic and social imperative.
Let’s build a space that works beautifully — for everyone who walks through the door.
Empower Design Co. was created to change that.
We help align world-class accessibility design with the UAE’s national vision for inclusion — starting with where people live, stay, and gather.
