RONAK SHAH, CEO AND FOUNDER, WONDERWALL
In the competitive world of interior design, standing out requires a blend of vision, execution, and an unwavering commitment to excellence. Wonderwall, led by the charismatic Ronak Shah, is achieving exactly that in the region.
Ronak Shah is more than just a civil engineer; he is a daring visionary who saw beyond the limitations of his field. His career began as a Site Engineer, working on notable projects such as the Jumeirah Beach Hotel, Taj Hotel, and Atlantis. However, Ronak’s entrepreneurial spirit led him to identify a significant market gap: the lack of end-to-end interior design and build solutions.
In 2017, he took the bold step of establishing Wonderwall. This jump into entrepreneurship has paid off tremendously. Under Ronak’s direction, Wonderwall has developed from a one-man company to a powerhouse with over 40 designers and talented professionals in civil works, masonry, joinery, painting, and MEP. This quick expansion reflects Ronak’s vision and the company’s dedication to quality.
Wonderwall is a comprehensive project management company that combines innovative interior design with meticulous civil engineering. Wonderwall, founded in 2017, has already created over 80 breathtaking architectural masterpieces that redefine luxury living in the UAE.
Their portfolio is wide, spanning from luxury villas and penthouses to F&B designs, retail shops, and office spaces. Aside from interior design and project management, Wonderwall specialises in interior fit-outs and bespoke furniture manufacturing, making it the goto answer for all design requirements.
Wonderwall’s objective is to create environments that reflect the client’s individual style and soul. Each project is handled as a blank canvas, transforming personal ambitions and desires into practical reality. They are well-known for their unique approach to villa extensions and sophisticated renovations, which ensures clients have a smooth transition from concept to completion without the worry of oversight and permissions.
Wonderwall recently presented on two panels at INDEX, alongside Ronak Shah, who spoke extensively about how to master value engineering in projects.
Wonderwall’s dedication to excellent design was recognised in 2022, when they won the coveted Arabian Best of the Best Award for “Best Interior Design Company in the Residential Category in the UAE”. This accolade demonstrates their ongoing commitment to quality and innovation.
Ronak Shah’s vision for Wonderwall is clear and ambitious. By 2024, he aims to position Wonderwall as the undisputed leader in luxury home design and build. The firm’s plans include championing sustainable solutions by continuing to work on incredible solar-powered residential and commercial properties. Sustainability is not just a trend for Wonderwall; it’s a commitment to a better future.
Additionally, as a homegrown fit-out company, Wonderwall is dedicated to promoting local artisan talent and regularly using new local suppliers. This not only supports the community but also infuses each project with unique local craftsmanship, adding a distinctive touch to their designs.
