Villa Mamas restaurant interior in Saar, Bahrain

Every space starts as a rectangle.

We're Rectangles, an interior design and build studio in Bahrain. Hand us an empty unit and we'll give you back a place people talk about.

Villa Mamas
Design & build / Bahrain + KSA
The studio

A shop unit, a villa floor, a blank floor plan. Most spaces reach us as plain rectangles. Since 2017 we have been turning them into cafes, restaurants, salons, offices and homes across Bahrain and Saudi Arabia, and we stay on site until the last chair is in place.

Definitely the coolest interior design office space on the Island. Nobody has ever walked in and left without complimenting it.
