BMA Studio is a global, award-winning design consultancy based in Dubai, with offices in London, Vienna, and Cairo. Founded in 2015 by architect, engineer and entrepreneur Leila Sobek, the studio brings together design and construction expertise to deliver timeless, fully integrated spaces that bring bold visions to life.
With a portfolio spanning the residential, commercial, and hospitality sectors, BMA Studio has successfully completed over 40 architectural and 30 interior design projects across the Middle East, Europe, and beyond.
At BMA Studio, every project is bespoke. Each journey begins with understanding the client’s aspirations, the site’s context, and the project’s purpose – creating design stories that connect people, place, and time. The studio’s work is rooted in the belief that architecture is not defined solely by form, but by the invisible layers that contribute to its success: thoughtful design, technical excellence, and seamless delivery.
This philosophy of “beauty in layers” is at the heart of their work, where proportion, balance, and structure are as thoughtfully considered as the visible aesthetic details, resulting in spaces that are beautiful, meaningful, and enduring.
BMA Studio offers a complete end-to-end delivery model, going beyond architecture and interior design to include technical and structural engineering, BIM design and management, FF&E design and procurement, tender and specification management, and full site and construction supervision. This multidisciplinary structure ensures creative consistency, technical accuracy, and seamless execution across all phases of a project, from concept to completion.
BMA Studio’s portfolio includes landmark residences and signature developments for industry leaders such as Emaar, Nakheel, and hospitality groups like Fairmont. One of the latest successful projects is the Lavita mansions at Oasis by Emaar- marking the developer’s first luxury offering of this scale. In 2023, the studio was honoured with the “Best Architecture Single Residence in Abu Dhabi” award at the Arabian Property Awards for its Beach House project, an iconic example of its site-responsive, holistic design approach.
With a vision to become a globally recognised name in architecture and execution, BMA Studio leads every project with creativity, clarity, and care while creating legacies that are built to last.
