Art Bay - Ellington Properties

The Brief — A New Complex Besides the Art District

 

Ellington Property, a design-led property developer in Dubai, is planning its next residential development situated at the most cultural district of Dubai — Al Jaddaf.

​

The brief is to brand differently from luxury apartments in the current market and focus on the fact that it is a cultural village and will be in high contact with art itself.

Research Insights — Calligraphy Shaped By Culture 

​

Since the property is situated in the UAE, we have studied the form of Arabian calligraphy, whose strokes are different from the English and the Eastern calligraphy.

The Idea — Home is A Work of Art

​​

The concept of home is an act of care and creativity that extends beyond physical features and amenities. Art Bay is a property that’s perfected by a blend of nurture and culture. Surrounded by a plethora of galleries and museums, and filled with family amenities and large living spaces, it’s ideal for those who thrive on creativity.
