What does Work Green do?
Work Green is a general contractor in the United Arab Emirates that designs and builds landscapes, swimming pools and interior fit-out. The company runs three divisions out of one office: Landscape, Pools & Waterscapes, and Fit-Out & Interiors. Its own crews carry a project from the first site survey through to handover, covering hardscape, planting, irrigation, pool construction, joinery and MEP works.
Which parts of the UAE does Work Green cover?
Work Green works across Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah and Al Ain. The company is based in Abu Dhabi and has delivered projects on Saadiyat Island, Yas Island, Jubail Island and Al Nurai Island, and in Dubai Hills Estate, District One at Al Meydan, Emirates Hills, Arabian Ranches, Al Khawaneej, Khalifa City and Al Ain.
Can one contractor handle both the garden and the interior fit-out?
Yes. Work Green keeps landscape, pool and interior fit-out inside the same company, so one contractor and one project manager cover the whole property. Where most contractors hand at least one of those trades to a subcontractor, Work Green's fit-out division takes villas and apartments to handover standard using the same organisation that built the garden.
Does Work Green design gardens or only build them?
Work Green designs and builds. Design is a service inside each of its three divisions, and a garden is drawn in full 3D before any stone is laid, so the client can walk through the scheme and approve it first. Levels, hardscape, planting, water and lighting are resolved as one composition rather than decided on site.
What is included in a full landscape package from Work Green?
A full Work Green landscape package covers design, architectural and civil works, softscape and plantation, irrigation, pergolas and outdoor rooms, BBQs and outdoor kitchens, outdoor furniture, outdoor lounges and decking. Swimming pools, water features and garden lighting come from the same company, so earthworks, waterproofing, drainage and planting all run on one programme.
What kind of swimming pools does Work Green build?
Work Green builds pools in two styles: a sharp contemporary line and a soft organic or beach edge. Each pool arrives as one package covering structure, waterproofing, filtration, finishes and the surrounding deck. The company draws the pool before the rest of the garden, because everything around it takes its shape from the water.
What is the difference between hardscape and softscape?
Hardscape is the built, non-living part of a garden: paving, retaining walls, steps, decking, pergolas, pool structures and drainage. Softscape is the living part: trees, palms, shrubs, turf, ground cover and the irrigation that keeps them alive. A garden in the UAE needs both resolved together, because planting depths, drainage falls and irrigation lines are set while the hardscape is still being built.
Who has Work Green built for?
