Design intent made procureable — restaurant BOQ and interior coordination extract
Thirteen-category interior bill of quantities + reference-theme design coordination record · 7–8 September 2013 · hospitality development, Nizwa
The record
On 7 September 2013, a design contractor sent the owner’s side one email for a new restaurant in Nizwa: a thirteen-category interior bill of quantities beside eleven reference-theme images — reception, bar, private rooms, corridor, open-restaurant seating and wall treatments. Design intent and its price structure travelled together, in the same message, before the first drawing hardened.
This page publishes the BOQ’s structure from the exported source workbook. Commercial figures are withheld per the register treatment; each category is shown as its share of the interior budget instead — the shape of the money, never the money.
The thirteen categories — each as its share of the interior budget
| Decorative works — 41% | wall panels, partitions, raised floor, water feature, curtains, painting, pillar cladding — the room’s character, priced as its largest single family |
|---|---|
| Loose furniture — 13% | tables, chairs, sofas and side tables — the guest-facing estate as its own category |
| Bar area — 8% | counter, display back wall, storage and work area, stools — the licensed space priced as a system |
| Open restaurant — 8% | deck floor, seating, foldable umbrellas — the outdoor room given equal discipline |
| Reception · back office · VIP lounge · contingency — ~5% each | arrival, administration, the private tier and the honest “unforeseen” line |
| Traditional seating · private rooms (three formats) · site preparation — the balance | a traditional majlis-style area, three sizes of private room, and the protection of the site before work began |
What the exclusions prove
The workbook closes by naming what it does not cover: electricity and water, flooring and false ceilings, government approvals, and all civil and mechanical works. An interior BOQ that states its own boundary is coordination evidence in itself — the interior package was priced knowing exactly where the base-build and statutory scopes began, so no dirham could hide between two contracts.
The reference-theme set — held, and why
The eleven accompanying images are reference-theme collateral: photographs and renders of other venues, carried as “optional themes” for each space. They are third-party imagery — identifiable people, venue brand marks and stock provenance among them — so they are not reproduced here, by the estate’s own image law. Their evidential value survives without reproduction: the record shows themes proposed space-by-space beside a priceable category structure, which is precisely what design coordination looks like in writing.
Role boundaries
The BOQ and themes came from a design contractor to the owner’s side for direction and commitment — the owner-side hand held the brief, the budget shape and the decision. Statutory approvals, civil works and MEP belonged to the licensed and contracted parties who carried them, as the workbook’s own exclusions record. GGB is the present-day consultancy carrying this coordination discipline; it claims the owner-side coordination shown, and nothing else.
Redactions applied
All monetary amounts and the currency total are withheld; the category structure publishes as percentage shares. The sending contractor and individuals are not named. The reference-theme images are withheld in full per the image law.
What this document proves — and what it does not
It proves that design intent and commercial structure were coordinated in one motion, category by category, with the package boundary stated. It does not prove the interior was built to this exact structure, and it does not claim the reference imagery as design output — those are different records, and where they are cleared they publish in the dossier this document evidences.
