Dubai Silicon Oasis
The Kaawar family invite us into their picture-perfect property
Words by Hazel Plush; images by Nasir Rauf
For Liz Kaawar, the move to a new-build
villa in Dubai Silicon Oasis offered the
chance to take up the ultimate interior
design challenge. Two years later, Liz’s
vision has come true – and her pride is
clear. “I’ve just kept going: if you do that,
you’ll always find what you’re looking for,”
she says with a smile. “It was incredibly
daunting to walk in here and see an empty
house – everything you see here is new.
When we first moved in my husband was
working so hard and the children were
little, so I had to do it myself. I’ve bought
things from all over the city – there is
something from everywhere in this house!”
April 2013
When Liz moved in, with her husband
Georges and children Claudia and Carla,
the challenge was to find furniture that
suited her style. “I had an idea of the
design I wanted – an elegant, serene look
– and I was looking for contemporary dark
wood furniture with silver accents. There
was nothing to be found, so eventually I
‘It was very daunting
to walk into an empty
house – everything you
see is new...’
decided to have a selection of furniture
commissioned.” Liz met interior design
consultant Sharon Conneely-Donaldson,
and the pair drew up designs for a sofa
and dining set to match Liz’s taste.
Since then, Liz has also worked with
Wray Backus, an artist who shares Liz’s Irish
roots, who she commissioned to produce
a series of bespoke pieces to complement
the villa’s main silver and blue colour
scheme. “Georges and I didn’t imagine
that the results would be so good; we
are really pleased with everything. It’s
great to work with local designers and
craftspeople.”
April 2013
16 Cover Feature
Handily, Georges is managing director
of Taps & More, a specialist in bathroom
and kitchen faucets – so the couple have
upgraded all of the villa’s fittings too. The
overall result is high-quality, with a homely
touch that only care and attention to
detail can bestow.
In addition to bespoke works, Liz has
looked to interior design shops and
boutiques galore – “I still find it difficult
to resist them while I’m shopping, it’s a
hard habit to break after two years!”
Now, however, Liz has the time to sit back
and enjoy her creation – and the familyfriendly lifestyle that Dubai Silicon Oasis
can offer. “When we bought the house,
we delayed moving in because it was so
quiet, but now there’s a lovely community
atmosphere. When Spinneys opened,
we made the move, and we’ve enjoyed
watching the area become more vibrant.”
With both Carla and Claudia in school
just 20 minutes away, it’s a great location
for the morning commute, and the
‘I still find it hard to resist
interior design shops –
it’s a hard habit to break
after two years!’
neighbourhood amenities are perfect
for the girls. “We have three pools in the
compound and a tennis court nearby,”
says Liz. “We mix with the neighbours a
lot – the kids all go to school together, so
there’s a great social element because of
that. It’s a safe, friendly environment for
them to play in.”
Liz, a keen walker, often takes to the
landscaped tracks that run around the
community, and the whole family love the
villa’s spacious garden and swimming pool.
“We often have friends round for barbecues
at the weekend; we’ve has some big parties
in the garden, too – you can easily host up
to 120 people out there. Of course, when we
first moved in the garden was just a sandpit,
so it has been another labour of love to get
it looking great.”
With results this good, would Liz ever be
tempted to take on another villa? “I don’t
know!” she laughs. “I have enjoyed the
process – every project has its frustrations,
of course, but on the whole it has been
fun. There is a huge sense of enjoyment
in the process – it’s great when you finally
find a house that you want.”

From humble three-bedroom
properties to lavish fivebedroom abodes, Dubai
Silicon Oasis certainly doesn’t
scrimp on choice. Being in a
Free Zone Authority, villas are
available for both rent and
purchase, and prices reflect
the space, layout and views
on offer. The area consists of
two gated communities: Cedre
Villas and Semmer Villas. The
former boasts 1047 properties
with three to five bedrooms
in a range of styles, while
the latter has 560 luxurious
three-bedroom builds. Silicon
Residences II offers one- to
three-bedroom apartments
too – perfect for couples and
families looking for great value.
All areas have a full range of
amenities – kids will love the
swimming pools, sports courts
and community centres. Shared
areas benefit from extensive
landscaping, so there’s always
somewhere leafy for the
children to hang out, and most
properties are within walking
distance of the retail areas.
You’ll find hair and beauty
salons, gyms, and a running
track nearby – and, if you want
to venture further afield, easy
road links to the city are close
by too (The Dubai Mall is a
mere 15-minute drive away).
Although you’ll need a car to
get around, Silicon Oasis has a
taxi hub, so you won’t have to
wait long for a lift.
The list of amenities in the
Semmer and Cedre shopping
centres is lengthy: two Spinneys,
a Choithram and Green Park
Supermarket cater for all
your groceries needs, plus
you’ll find pharmacies, banks,
laundrettes and coffee houses
nearby. For eating-out, there’s a
couple of choices if you don’t
fancy venturing far: Al Arrab
Restaurant (04 326 4949) and
Bedouinn’s Bistro (04 382 1555)
are handy choices. For lighter
bites, you’ll find Costa Coffee
and Subway in the community
centres, and the Dubai Silicon
Oasis neighbourhood website
(siliconoasis.org) often lists
promotions at eateries and
delivery services nearby.
Handily for the vast number
of families that call the area

Independent Finance’s
general manager Sam
Wani reveals the latest
movements in mortgages
April 2013
Dubai was one of the three
best performing real estate
markets in the world last year.
The property prices ranged
between US$520 and US$580
per square foot. On the other
hand, prime real estate cost
between US$5,350 and US$5,920
per square foot in Monaco
during the same period. Among
20 of the world’s costliest
property markets, Dubai was
positioned on 19th rank, only
ahead of Cape Town.
An investment of $1million
can expect to buy a luxury
Dubai villa covering around 168
sq.m. But $1 million in Monaco
can buy just 16 sq.m. In fact,
while you can get 23 sq.m for
your million dollars in London,
44 sq.m in Sydney or 73 sq.m in
Los Angeles, very few markets
can match Dubai for its value;
only in Cape Town will you get
more bang for your buck, with
172 sq.m for US$1 million.
The price of luxury real
estate increased at a healthy
rate of 20% in Dubai and Bali.
Meanwhile, market prices in
Jakarta catapulted by 38%,
highest among the 80 global
destinations. Property prices
in Monaco rose by 2%, while
Hong Kong and London were
tied at an increase of 8.7%.
However, prices fell in Geneva
(6%), Paris (4%), Moscow (2.3%)
and New York (1.4%).
Lease rates for three-bed villa
rents remained stable between
AED250,000 and AED310,000 pa.
The cost of leasing a three-bed
villa in Arabian Ranches saw
a 22% jump with an average
lease of AED190,000. The
prices of these villas rose by
20% averaging AED2.8 million.
Four-bed units rose 12.5% to
range between AED170,000
and AED270,000 p/a. Average
prices are AED3.5 million.
Four-bed villas in Jumeirah
Islands are currently available
for AED280,000 to AED330,000
p/a, while three-bed units are
being leased for AED240,000 to
AED300,000 p/a both registering
a jump of 6.4%. Average prices
range about AED4.5 million.
One-bed villas in Jumeirah
Village Triangle are leased
at between AED70,000 and
AED90,000 p/a. The average
price has risen to AED1.3 million.
5,400 villas are expected to be
delivered in 2013, taking the
total stock to 60,400.
Dubai’s real estate market
will get another major shot in
the arm when the $1-billion
Investment Corporation
of Dubai (ICD)-Brookfield
Dubai Real Estate Fund
gets underway. The fund,
once formed, will pursue
opportunities in the Dubai real
estate sector with a particular
focus on development
opportunities.

Emirates Living remains a stronghold for the real estate market in Dubai, as most
of the communities have been completed. All are set to offer a good return on
investment and a good standard of living. Rents are still a little volatile and there
has been increases in some areas such as Springs Lakes and Meadows, but
the higher the quality of property the higher the demand. The rents for less wellmaintained units or those completed to lesser specifications have seen a decline.
As Emirates Living is dominated by villa communities it will always attract the expat
family-orientated tenant, and as such will give a stable return for investors.

Downtown has become the most prestigious square kilometre of land in Dubai,
going from strength to strength especially over the past year. Burj Khalifa may
be the centre of attraction, but residents continue to flock to the other buildings
available in the area. The last year has seen new towers take shape, and a few
more towers are expected to be handed over in the coming months. The demand
for rental properties is quite high in Downtown, so the new supply should not affect
leasing prices. Demand in this area shows no signs of cooling down yet and with all
of the retail shops that have recently been added to the Boulevard, investors and
end users will continue to be attracted to this prestigious location.

Washing days will be much
simpler with the LG 12kg
capacity front load washer,
the largest capacity washing
drum ever introduced in the
domestic standard-sized
model. The F1495BDS7 model
comes with improved energy
and water efficiency that more
than offsets the demands of
its heavier loads – perfect
for sustainably-minded
households. Packed with topgrade features, the washing
machine’s 6 Motion Direct Drive
technology tailors its washing
‘A simple way to
optimise washing
results and save
cash and energy’
depending on particular
fabric types, while the LG True
Stream technology provides
an enhanced deep-clean
performance and family care.
Better yet, the machine can
detect the size of the load, and
adapt the amount of water
used: a simple way to optimise
results and save cash and
energy. The model is under
warranty for ten years, so you’ll
enjoy peace of mind, too.
Hitachi Refrigerator
Ultra Big2 Series
From Eros, erosgroup.ae
This vast 720-litre French-style

to its name: there’s enough
room inside to suit a very
hungry family, with spacious
compartments and easy-reach
shelves. Dual fan cooling
technology and fail-safe
insulation ensure that the fridge
is as energy efficient as possible.
An ice and water dispenser
makes grabbing a drink easy,
and you’ll find a surprisingly
roomy freezer compartment at
the top. Available in both gold
and black colour schemes.

Essential interiors inspiration – whatever your taste
With this ingenious gadget, hand
washing will never be the same again.
This household tap may look simple from
the outside, but it harnesses Airblade
technology to provide the ultimate in
hygienic convenience. When the infrared
sensors detect hands, they release water
from the tap stem. And when drying is
requested, two high velocity sheets of
filtered air are generated, drying hands in
12 seconds flat.
My wife and I have two kids
and a dog; you can’t live in
a show home with all that!
It’s beautiful, it’s comfortable;
I want people to come in and
feel welcomed – that’s what I
strive for.

Severin Breakfast Range
From Juma Al Majid, EMax, Plug-Ins
Perfecting the timing of eggs, coffee
and toast can be tricky, but it needn’t be
with the Severin Breakfast Range, which
is designed to make mornings a breeze.
Comprising of a stainless steel coffee
maker, kettle, toaster and egg boiler, the
series not only looks great but works reliably
too. Kids will love the handy egg boiler,
which cooks soft, medium or hard boiled
eggs to perfection. Now there’s no excuse
not to fill up on the most important meal of
the day.
From Eros, erosgroup.ae
If you worry about the quality of air
in your home, it’s time to invest in the
Hitachi EP-A7000 Air Purifier. Cutting
down on airborne allergens, germs
and dust, this discreet piece of kit can
be installed in any room. Six functions
focus on key problem areas, including:
deodorisation, pollen count, humidity
and skin moisture. The four-hour timer
and allergen-free HEPA filter make it
perfect for little ones’ bedrooms – and
there’s even an eco-friendly mode
which delivers optimum results with
minimum environmental impact.
I’m always trying to anticipate
trends, looking for inspiration
in so many different areas,
and it all ends up in a design
soup. And of course, I take that
home with me – my house is
a bit of a guinea pig, where I
try out ideas, and it can be a
final resting place for items I’ve
bought which haven’t worked.
JOHN MCLENNAN
The CEO of Indigo Living loves
relaxed, functional design with
a great story behind it
Home for me is an apartment in
Hong Kong. My style is relaxed,
welcoming and comfortable.
It’s slightly tailored, with a bit
of sophistication. It’s welltravelled, too, with different
components from all of the
places I have visited.
Brighten up your interiors
Our dining table is a huge old
teak piece – it’s three metres
long, a couple of hundred
years old. It’s got carvings in
it, initials, scratches… It has a
history all of its own. When you
look at it, you wonder what its
story is.
‘I take my work
home with me
– my house is a
guinea pig, where
I try out ideas’
When my wife and I travel, we
always like to buy one piece
from wherever we go. We were
in China in the early ’90s, and
met some struggling artists
selling their work. I didn’t really
like anything but we felt we
should buy something, so we
chose a piece and it has been
on our wall for 20 years now.
We’ve grown to love it, and we
found out a few years ago that
the artist is now really famous.
We would never sell it – we just
love it for its story. That’s why it’s
so special. indigo-living.com

Little ones will love these cool crash pads
Grown-up den
When little ones aren’t so little,
it can be hard to leave those
pink trimmings and soft toys
behind, but sporty types will
love this stylish furniture set
from Çilek (right, cilek.com).
Featuring leather- and woodtrimmed wardrobes, dressers
and beds, it’s hard-wearing
and timeless – and some nifty
designs will save some storage
space too. The panel under
this bed pulls out to reveal
another mattress inside – a
handy touch for sleepovers.
Accessorise with neutralcoloured touches for a grownup look: a simple beige and
chocolate palette looks great,
and will work perfectly with
wooden accents. Avoid the
dingy teenage bedroom effect
by installing light curtains,
plenty of lamps, and enough
storage space to keep clutter
out of the way. Display art and
certificates in frames, and
splash out on a robust rug.

Royal Furniture
Fun study space
Girlie retreat
If your clan need some encouragement to
get stuck into their homework, make the
prospect more appealing by designing a
grown-up study space. With draws, a desk
and deep shelves for them to file their work,
this sturdy set by Royal Furniture (above,
royalfurniture.ae) has plenty of space for
little learners. Keep accessories bright,
and encourage kids to decide what goes
where – if they feel like the space is theirs,
they’ll be more likely to make the most of
it. Pin boards are perfect for displaying
essential notes, and some brightly coloured
boxes will keep pens and pencils under
wraps. Invest in an office chair that can
be adjusted as kids grow, and a rug to
keep feet off cold tiles. Lastly, ensure that
interiors are light and airy: paint walls with
vibrant colours, and use lamps to keep the
space well-lit: essential if you can inspire
your older kids to study past bedtime...
Indulge your little princess with a pinkperfect bedroom to suit her girlie ways.
When it comes to accessories, nothing
is too pink or flowery, but keep furniture
neutral to ensure it’ll last into her teenage
years. This hard-wearing set from Pottery
Barn Kids (left, potterybarnkids.me), makes
an excellent base. Look to Pottery Barn
Kids for cosy comforters and lovely linens,
too: mix and match hues, patterns and
textures for a vibrant look. If your little girl
loves art and craft, create bright panels
by gluing sheets of fabric or paper to
wooden boards and hanging them
on walls. It’s a cheap way to brighten
interiors – and, more importantly, they can
be updated easily when she discovers
boy bands... For now, though, you can’t
go wrong with butterfly motifs, flowery
patterns, sparkly light fittings and a big
fluffy rug for play time.

Pottery Barn Kids
Bunk-bed buddies
Home Centre
If space is tight, maximise your kiddies’
bedroom space with a cute bunk-bed
set: they’ll love the idea of buddying
up, and they’ll have more room for play
time too. Try this cool set from Home
Centre (left, homecentrestores.com),
with ingenious pull-out storage space
and a sturdy metal ladder. Keep the style
bright and colourful with dazzling paint,
and apply patterned wall stickers from
mumzworld.com – we love the Mickey &
Friends range. To personalise the bunks,
let little ones choose their own bed linen,
and keep cuddly treasures close on
bed-side shelves. Individual lamps for
bedtime reading are essential, and overbed nets will maximise privacy too (why
not personalise them with home made
bunting?) After play, hide toys away in
themed boxes to keep the room clutterfree: kids will love this sociable space,
although they may have to flip coins for
the top bunk...

DO IT YOURSELF
Debajyoti Das, home owner,
Arabian Ranches
GET THE PROFESSIONALS IN
Nahaseer Mubarak Naushad, managing director,
Pack 2 Go
“If you haven’t got a vast amount of things to
shift, it can be simpler to do it yourself – with
the help of a hired van, of course. You’ll find it
easier to keep track of your belongings, and it’s
cheaper too. Stock up on some essential items:
big cardboard boxes (make sure they’re sturdy
to keep heavier items safe), scissors, parcel tape
and marker pens. Don’t put more weight into the
boxes than you can comfortably lift, and label
every container with the contents and room
from which they were taken. This will ease the
unpacking process. Doing the shifting yourself
will allow you to do some clearing out too: go
through wardrobes and cupboards with a fine
tooth comb, and donate or sell whatever you
don’t need. With some careful planning, you
can get some cash for unwanted furniture on
dubizzle.com – do this a few weeks before the
move, though, to reduce hassle. If you have kids,
pack them off to friends for the day, or get older
children involved – sweets and treats make a
handy incentive...”
“Thorough planning is essential to ensure that
your possessions are handled with care. Once
you entrust the task to specialists, the entire
responsibility will rest upon them to move the
goods. The right tools, transportation, trucks and
warehouses for storage will enable the packer to
deliver your goods in a safe and secure manner.
Fragile items are wrapped up thoroughly to
prevent breakage, and everything is labelled
clearly. Only professional movers are capable of
providing their clients with such an exceptional
service. And who can put a price on peace
of mind? Hiring the services of a professional
moving company is the only way to enjoy a
stress-free relocation, leaving you to focus on
other important matters. Take some time to
make enquiries about the validity of the moving
company’s address, and the experience of their
estimators and packers. Do not hesitate to ask
for references before you make that crucial
decision of entrusting your valuable belongings
to the movers.” pack2go.ae

these elegant Asian recipes will wow dinner guests
Nobu: it’s a name synonymous with pristine
Japanese cuisine. Think sophisticated
flavours, faultless ingredients, and a
menu brimming with exotic, adventurous
creations. Head to the restaurant at
Atlantis, The Palm, to experience the crème
de la crème of Japanese hospitality – it’s
a treat for your tastebuds and a spectacle
in its own right. Adventurous cooks will be
itching to try their hand at recreating the
dishes – and we’ve got the inside tips, right
from chef de cuisine Herve Courtot himself,
who has worked at the restaurant since
its opened in 2008. “Almost anything can
inspire me, not always food related,” says
the chef. “Sometimes you see something in
nature, for example, and it reminds you of
a dish – then you go back into the kitchen
and create something new. Japanese
cuisine is very healthy and can be fun
once you understand it – it’s essential
to use fresh ingredients, and always
keep staples like soy sauce to hand.”

SASHIMI SALAD WITH
MATSUHISA DRESSING
Serves 4
BLACK COD DEN MISO
NOBU-STYLE WASABI
LOBSTER TACOS
Serves 2
Serves 2
t
t
t
t
500g cod
1 bambou leaf
1 lemon
2 hajikamie ginger
For the saikyo miso:
t 100ml mirin
t 150g sugar
t 300g white miso paste
t Lobster tail
t 2 taco shells
t wasabi sour cream
(140g wasabi paste & 600g
sour cream, combined)
1. Fry the lobster, cut into small
cubes, and combine it with the
wasabi sour cream.
2. To serve, sprinkle some
finely-chopped onion and fresh
coriander on top.
1. About 2 days ahead make the saikyo
miso: in heavy-based non-reactive
saucepan, bring the mirin to the boil, and
continue to boil for 2-3 minutes.
2. Using a wooden spoon, stir in the sugar
until it has dissolved, then slowly mix in the
miso paste, a little at a time. Cook over a
medium heat, stirring constantly so as not
to let the mixture burn, for 10-15 minutes
3. Strain the mixture through a sieve to
remove any lumps, allow to cool, and chill.
4. Place the fish in a non-reactive
container, pour a good splash of the saikyo
miso over each fillet, and leave to marinate
for one day in the fridge.
5. When cooking the fish, preheat the hot
grill or oven to 200°c. Place the fillets on
the grill pan or on a non-stick baking sheet
and cook under the grill or in the oven for
10-12 minutes, turning once if grilling, until
it is cooked through and golden brown on
the outside.
6. Place on a serving dish and dress the
plate with a bamboo leaf, lemon and
hajikamie and the saikyo miso.
