The project

How it came together.

Wayfarer Cafe in DIFC is an ongoing Moonwest fit-out. Everything below is straight from site, sorted by stage.

The existing floor and stone finishes were stripped out and broken up. The debris was bagged and taken away by truck, and floor protection went down across the space.

Scaffold towers are up for the ceiling works, the main DB and electrical panels are being wired, and the fluted wall panelling and new doors are going in.

The fit-out is in progress. Finished photos follow at handover.
