What stands out
The features that set this development apart, from the developer's plans.
Pool with a Baja shelf for in-water loungers
Ellington's brochure adds cabanas and a lifeguard-supervised children's pool. The render shows the pool's edge facing Dubai Creek.
Glass bays on the façade
Ellington says the cube shapes nod to the Jameel Arts Centre nearby. Four plans have glass bays off a living room or bedroom.
Culture Lounge around an indoor tree
Sunken seating and library shelves surround the tree, with creek views through full-height glass, per Ellington's brochure.
Lobby with glass doors onto the pool
Ellington's brochure says floor-to-ceiling glass leads the eye from the lobby to the pool terrace, with art shown around the building.
