Design Inspiration and Features -Idea behind the design

Designed by XBD Collective, each villa is inspired by Oceanic style architecture, embodying the essence of a serene, sun-drenched lifestyle, with hints of Arabic influences. The interiors reflect a harmony of desert and ocean, with navy and turquoise tones paired with sandy stone, driftwood accents, and polished marble.

Custom teak wood and Greek marble flooring enhance the refined design, while horizon-inspired lines create a sense of flow and openness throughout. Clad in Lemra Natural Stone from Turkey, the villa further showcases the use of natural, refined materials while custom-made lighting and furniture from Italian brands such as FontanaArte and Molteni & C further add to the serene, ocean-front ambience.

Further, the shading screens are inspired by Mashrabiya elements whilst water features are reminiscent of the traditional Falaj system that reflects the local culture. The colour palette, materials, and reflective surfaces capture the essence of Dubai’s desert and oceanic beauty, creating a culturally rich living space.
