At The Melgrano, the direction was clear: combine the privacy, volume, and finishes of a luxury villa with the convenience of apartment living.

Working with 3S Capital and 1508 London, the design embraces simplicity as a discipline.

From the grand sense of arrival and direct lift access to units with uninterrupted views of the Dubai Water Canal and Burj Khalifa, every decision emphasises proportion, privacy, and longevity.

Durable materials, shaded terraces, clean architectural lines, and spaces that age gracefully within their environment ensure the design feels considered and enduring.

Achieving this level of simplicity requires patience, restraint, and trust in the fundamentals, where architecture becomes quiet and powerful.

Dewan is proud to be the lead design consultant for Inaura Downtown, an AED1.7bn luxury hotel and residential tower by Arada in Downtown Dubai.

Designed by MVRDV, the 42-storey building rises over 200 metres and features a central orb within the tower, serving as a shared social and dining space with views across the Burj Khalifa, Business Bay and the wider skyline. The building is designed to respond to its setting, with active, city-facing spaces at street level and quieter, more private areas higher up.

Inaura Downtown includes a hotel, retail and lifestyle spaces, along with 114 branded residences, ranging from one- to four-bedroom apartments to Sky Villas and a multi-level Sky Penthouse. Shaped around movement and everyday wellbeing, the project’s layouts and connections support active daily routines.
