The Saudi Arabia interior design market size is estimated at USD 4.1 billion in 2025 and estimated to rise USD 5.25 in 2026, projected to reach USD 10.4 billion by 2035, growing at a CAGR of 6.3% during the forecast period (2026–2035).

Market growth ties back to massive property ventures launched through Vision 2030, and, at the same time, hotels and tourist facilities keep spreading fast. Residential builds continue rising, holding a steady trend and turnkey interior setups gain more ground now instead of later. Also, high-end homes need finer details inside, luxury brands shape hotel vibes, city workspaces lean into sleeker layouts and government keeps funding huge undertakings, reshaping cities, stitching together live-work hubs. These efforts feed momentum from Riyadh down to Jeddah, stretch west toward Makkah and Madinah, reach new spots built around travel-driven economies.
The Saudi interior scene rests on full-package solutions, where delivery speed, budget, and one-name responsibility matter most. Instead of juggling multiple vendors, clients now look for unified workflows, fueled by housing megaprojects, offices, hotels tied to Vision 2030 goals. Roughly half the market rides on these bundled setups, blending design with execution under a single roof.
A shift is unfolding driven by eco-conscious materials, adaptive spatial planning, with designs rooted in cultural context. Function meets practical living, pairs with lower energy demand while resonating with regional character, pulling focus from generic solutions. Projects centered on lasting impact outpace broader industry growth, as companies lean into layered services instead of standalone deliverables.
Expansion in the market stems from massive construction pushes tied to Vision 2030, with residential zones, office spaces, and hotels keeping interior design services busy. Public housing initiatives feed into this flow, alongside multi-functional city hubs where living, working, and shopping blend. Medical centers emerge steadily, shaping a major 60% of demand for interior work. Schools and universities add their weight too, forming a steady pull-on design service. Together, these sectors make up well over half of what drives the country's interior landscape forward.
A fresh wave of hotel builds and leisure spots pushes higher appetite for top-tier interiors. Meanwhile, more spending power at home fuels consistent uptick in living space makeovers across the coming years. Growth in travel-focused infrastructure quietly lifts commercial design needs alongside personal projects.
Even with strong potential ahead, the interior design scene in Saudi Arabia runs into hurdles that slow its momentum. Rising expenses from high-end materials weigh heavily on budgets, especially when tailored solutions enter the mix and approval procedures add layers of complexity, stretching timelines beyond comfort. Mid-tier home and office builds feel this pinch most sharply and especially when cash flow tightens, clients hesitate, personal tastes shift and plans stall, making homeowners to think and builders wait.
Focusing on foreign talent and shipping in materials can complicate how design studios run because relying heavily on outside know-how along with distant vendors tends to inflate expenses while inviting late arrivals both mess with timelines and growth potential. Such pressures hit harder when workloads spike, since the need for capable designers, coordinators, or niche builders quickly exceeds what's available nearby.
The market opens doors through massive infrastructure pushes and city reshaping efforts, fueled by steady public funding alongside broader economic ambitions. Firms that blend adaptability with cohesion in their interior offerings find themselves aligned with builders focused on hotels, combined residential-commercial spaces, and organizations needing uniform results at scale. Rather than one-size-fits-all, it's about fluid responses, shifting layouts, evolving materials, and designs that adjust without losing identity. Government-backed plans keep momentum alive, while private players respond with systems built for repetition without rigidity. Growth isn't sudden but it unfolds quietly through repeated contracts and trust is built project after project.
A shift toward high-end living fuels interest in tech-smart interiors of luxury homes, name-brand hotels, and shops that sell an atmosphere now reliant on integrated systems for comfort and control. Digital modeling gives clients a clearer picture early on, shaping choices before work begins and some studios adopt real-time rendering so adjustments happen faster, keeping feedback loops tight. Smarter layouts emerge from data-informed plans, not guesswork, fitting lifestyles more naturally which helps trust grow when people see ideas take form smoothly, without surprises down the line.

New builds take the biggest share, roughly two-thirds by 2025, driven by wide-stretching residential tracts, towering offices, health hubs, combined with city-scale developments linked to government-led building pushes. The leftover portion comes from reworking existing spaces, guided more by changing functional demands than fresh footprints.
Renovation activity keeps gaining momentum, expected to grow roughly 7.2% each year moving forward. Older hotels are getting facelifts as owners reconsider layouts, trading cluttered spaces for simpler movement through rooms and inside offices, changes go beyond appearance where spaces adapt to how people actually work now. Stores tweak their entrances, striving for warmth while keeping things understated and homes get reworked just like anything else, where updates mix function with looks in subtle ways.

Sitting at roughly 42% by 2025, the mid-level bracket takes the lead, fuelled mostly by everyday housing needs, workplace setups, alongside builders who watch costs but still want solid aesthetics minus the steep tags.

Rising demand comes not just from elite buyers but also corporate investors drawn to private villas, name-backed homes, top-tier resorts.

Based on material type, the market is segmented into wood and timber, glass and ceramics, metals, textiles and fabrics, and sustainable or recycled materials.
Wood and timber take up most of the marketspace, making about a third of the market by 2025, simply because they’re used everywhere for furniture, walls, cabinets, and little details in homes and offices alike. Glass, ceramics, metals come next, each holding their own in different corners with textiles drape through spaces softly, adding texture where needed. Then there's the growing bunch of reused stuff, eco-minded picks gaining ground slow but steady. However, while wood still leads, others keep finding ways to fit in.
Sustainable materials plus recycled ones make up the quickest expanding category, projected to grow at roughly 8% each year through the outlook window. This momentum comes from eco-conscious construction trends, stronger rules pushing environmental responsibility, alongside growing attention from builders and residents drawn to low-impact supplies, spaces that save power, also savings over time.

Makkah Province accounted for around 26% of the interior design market in 2025, supported by continuous hospitality, retail, and mixed-use development linked to religious tourism and coastal urban growth. Cities such as Jeddah and Mecca generate strong demand for hotel interiors, serviced apartments, retail complexes, and public infrastructure that require frequent upgrades and capacity-driven interior planning.
Ongoing government investment in tourism infrastructure, alongside expansion and refurbishment of hotels to accommodate rising visitor volumes, is sustaining demand for high-value interior design and fit-out services. In addition, increasing focus on culturally aligned design and durable interior materials in public-facing spaces continues to support steady project flow across the province.
The Eastern Province made up around 15% percent of the market by 2025, fueled mainly through housing projects alongside business hubs tied to oil operations rather than unrelated sectors.
