About Atélis

Architecture & Design Concept

Atélis at d3 is a single tower of 3 basement levels, ground floor and 42 residential storeys plus a rooftop level, designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM), the architecture firm behind Burj Khalifa. The facade takes its cue from a desert flower, with curving balconies layered like petals to create a fluid, organic silhouette along the Creekside shoreline.

Atelis at d3 apartments for sale totals 280 units according to Dubai Land Department records, spanning 1, 2, 3 and 4-bedroom apartments, 4-bedroom Sky Villas and 5-bedroom penthouses. Interiors carry the same petal-inspired language into living spaces, with sweeping curves, a warm natural palette and slender bronze detailing throughout kitchens and bathrooms.

Sky Villas & Penthouse Living

The four-bedroom Sky Villas introduce double-height interiors, sculptural staircases and expansive private terraces overlooking both the skyline and waterfront. Layouts include open-plan kitchens and walk-in closets finished to a residential standard distinct from the standard apartment collection.

Above them, five-bedroom penthouses occupy the building's uppermost levels with double-height living and dining rooms, statement staircases and private terraces designed for entertaining. Both typologies are positioned as the tower's premium tier, separate from the 1 to 4-bedroom apartment floors below.

Wellness & Recreation Amenities

Ground-floor amenities include cascading pools, garden rooms, an outdoor co-working space, a children's learning area, an entertainment room and a multi-purpose room opening onto landscaped gardens. A gym overlooking the gardens sits on the first level, supported by shaded walkways and water features throughout the podium.

An elevated wellness level houses an infinity pool and garden spaces with panoramic Dubai skyline views, intended as a quieter counterpoint to the ground-floor social areas. The layering of amenities across multiple levels, rather than a single podium, is a defining feature of the building's resident experience.

Developer Track Record

Meraas is the master developer of Dubai Design District (d3) and has delivered other landmark waterfront addresses in Dubai, including Bluewaters Residences and BVLGARI Residences. The developer's positioning centres on limited-edition homes in distinct locations rather than volume delivery.

Atelis at d3 Dubai is being built within d3, an 18-million-square-foot creative district that Meraas has developed as a hub for design, art and fashion industries, giving the project a curated commercial and cultural context beyond typical residential developments.

Location

Location Within d3

Atélis at d3 sits on the Creekside shoreline within Dubai Design District (d3), positioned to give residences uninterrupted water views alongside proximity to the district's creative and commercial hub. The district itself spans 18 million square feet and is built around walkability, cycling paths and curated public art.

The tower overlooks Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary to the east and the Dubai skyline to the west, giving upper-floor units and the Sky Villas and penthouses a dual outlook uncommon among nearby waterfront towers.

Connectivity & Access

d3 sits close to Downtown Dubai and Business Bay via Al Khail Road and Ras Al Khor Road, with The Dubai Mall and Burj Khalifa roughly 10 minutes away and DIFC around 12 minutes by car. Dubai International Airport is approximately 15 minutes from the site.

City Walk is around 7 minutes away, placing Atélis at d3 within a short drive of several of Dubai's established retail and dining districts without requiring a Sheikh Zayed Road commute for daily errands.
