Five Reasons To Love STORY SALIM AL AFIFI AND ASMAA AL BALUSHI | PHOTOGRAPHY SALIM AL AFIFI
A
l Khoudh is one of Seeb’s oldest and most popular suburban neighbourhoods, but, over the last few years, the area has become crowded with villas of all shapes and sizes, car noise, and heavy traffic. This growth has caused the area to expand into the previously uninhabited surrounding lands where a new development known as Al Khoudh Phase 6 has blossomed. Phase 6 is located 30-minutes from the Muscat International Airport on outskirts of old Al Khoudh,
1
situated between the Book Roundabout, near Sultan Qaboos University, and the Muscat Expressway, bordered by the SQU area, Rusayl industrial area, and the beloved local picnic spot, Wadi Al Khoudh. This ‘hood used to be no more than dusty land with a few houses scattered here and there, but now, with the development of the Expressway and other services, Al Khoudh Phase 6 has become a lively area filled with gigantic villas, countless apartment towers, and commercial spaces on offer for very affordable prices.

3
In addition to basic facilities like ATM machines, restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, garages, hypermarkets, mosques, and schools, Al Khoudh Phase 6 is adjacent to the Armed Forces Hospital, Sultan Qaboos University, and the famous Al Khoudh Commercial Souq, which has all sorts of shops, and eateries. Property Times sat down with Haitham Al Azri, a Human Resources professional, to find out why he loves living in Phase 6. —lifestyle@timesofoman.com

One of the best things about living here is being close to Wadi Al Khoudh. It's a fantastic picnic area during the wintertime, where you can go and enjoy campfires and barbecues under the stars.
The Expressway is a stone’s throw away, a major advantage for those who commute to work and want to avoid the Sultan Qaboos Highway traffic. It also makes it easy to connect to most major areas of the city.
The area is filled with villas that are occupied by mostly families and married couples, so it feels to me like one of the best neighbourhoods in terms of offering a safe family environment for the kids.
Given that the area is relatively new, the prices are not as low as I had expected, but it’s still very affordable in comparison to other newly developed areas in Muscat. You can get more space for the money here.
The villas in this part of Al Khoudh sport modern architecture with creative designs and colour shades, which give the place a contemporary, fresh vibe. This was the factor that made me want to invest and buy a house of my own here.

Adorn Your Walls STORY ASMAA AL BALUSHI AND SALIM AL AFIFI
A
t one time, the ancient Chinese used delicate, hand cut paper to adorn the walls of their homes and temples. This lovely, historic Eastern art form evolved and spread, finding popularity in abodes both humble and grand around the world, from the walls of nobility to the walls of mid-century American housewives. The wide-ranging appeal of these artful wall dressings stems from the fact that with very little effort, wallpaper can transform a home; adding character, charm, and a definite sense of individuality. Just like personal fashion, home fashion is a reflection of your personality, so whether you are a sucker for floral designs or a fan of Arabesque geometry, adding the texture and pattern of wallpaper, can make a room. And in this digital era, there is now a world of options available from modern graphic designs to kid-friendly animal kingdom-inspired themes to old-school art deco prints. Before going cuckoo with your wallpapers, keep a few tips in mind. Horizontal designs, lines, and stripes make a room appear bigger, but can make the ceiling feel lower, while vertical patterns or stripes will make the ceiling appear higher. Oversized patterns and dark colours can overpower smaller rooms, making them feel cramped, but the same large pattern can make a cavernous, large space feel cosy and warm. Patterned wallpaper can be overwhelming in any space if it is overused, so consider papering a single accent wall, instead of the entire room. First things first, get a good sense of your room style and what you feel is missing. If you have contemporary, minimalistic furniture, it might not jive with wild, jungle wallpaper, though if it is warmth or playfulness that you want to add, it very well could be the perfect choice. Just ensure that the colours you choose harmonise in your space. Most shops will either give you samples to take home, or sell you small amounts of the paper, and it is always a good idea to see the paper in your own home before purchasing metres of it. FIND THE PERFECT PAPER BEST FOR CONTEMPORARY DESIGNS

POPULAR PATTERNS Wall Garden Who said that floral is only for spring? These classic patterns are versatile as they can compliment most furniture as long as the colours are of a similar hue. Opt for a white, contemporary floral design that can work in any space, or make a design statement with traditionally, ornate flower patterns that will add some nostalgia. Touch of Whimsy Children's wallpaper has become even
more creative and innovative than you might remember. Try a busy print with funky, bold illustrations to transform a boring, white space into a fun, kid-friendly room, or try the same paper in a home office paired with minimalist furniture for an off-beat vibe. Room with a View Perhaps you’ve always wanted to stare out your window at New York City's Empire State Building, London's Big Ben, or the busting of Tokyo. New decal-like wallpapers featuring iconic concrete jungles, ex-
otic beaches, and forest scenes are all the craze now. Cover a single wall for a custom view, or use a smaller section of the wall and add a frame for a window-like look. Mother Nature Raw wood panelling, wood planks, and faux stone wallpaper add a warm, earthy feel to spaces, without the headache, cost, or commitment of hiring a carpenter. Create a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone wall in the living room, or try a countrychic half-wall in natural wood grain. —lifestyle@timesofoman.com
