The Galleria on Al Maryah Island is the luxury shopping and lifestyle destination in Abu Dhabi. I was commissioned to produce a series of botanical-inspired wall coverings for the mall's interior.

I designed the wall coverings around a botanical vocabulary — foliage, flowering stems and ornamental framing — worked in pen and ink and scaled to wall-covering format. Line weight and motif density were set for the large-format repeat, with each panel building into a continuous pattern while holding enough botanical specificity to reward a closer look.

The coverings were installed as part of The Galleria Al Maryah Island's interior programme.
