Azizi Developments, Arup Partner For Azizi Opera In Venice
Azizi Developments, a leading private developer in the UAE, has announced its partnership with UK-based engineering firm Arup for the spatial planning of Azizi’s Opera, the crown jewel of its approximately AED 30 billion mixed-use development, Azizi Venice, located in Dubai South.
Founded in 1946 in London, Arup specializes in a wide range of disciplines, including structural and civil engineering, environmental advisory, and lighting design. With a dedication to excellence and collaboration, Arup has played a pivotal role in shaping some of the most iconic construction projects worldwide, executing holistic solutions that responsibly prioritize efficiency and functionality.
Mr. Farhad Azizi, Chief Executive Officer of Azizi Developments, said: “We are delighted to be partnering with the renowned Arup, whose expertise in engineering and design perfectly aligns with our commitment to delivering unparalleled luxury. Azizi Opera will become one of the most notable venues for cultural and community events in Dubai. We are eager to witness our joint efforts bringing about this state-of-the-art opera house.”
Azizi Venice will comprise more than 30,000 residential units across approximately 100 apartment complexes, and over 400 luxury villas and mansions. Azizi Developments is taking on the role of master developer, in charge of constructing the buildings, roads, and all the infrastructure.
At the heart of Azizi Venice lies its luxurious pedestrian-friendly boulevard, which will be open-air in the winter and glass-covered in the summer to ensure a temperature-controlled space with year-round activity and visitors. Lined with three-storey buildings planned to host the world’s top retailers and brands, nightlife, and entertainment options, as well as eateries that represent a vast number of countries from across the world, Azizi Boulevard will represent a new and unique point of interest on Dubai’s map of outstanding sights. Located at the heart of the boulevard and built to the highest, most contemporary standards in design and architecture, Azizi Opera will become one of the most notable venues for high-caliber events in the emirate.
A prime tourist attraction and high-end local hotspot, Azizi Venice is planned to welcome over 30,000 visitors on a daily basis. The opulent community will have its very own two Azizi-owned and operated five-star hotels at the entrances of the community, as well as one boutique hotel located on an island in the middle of the lagoon. A large number of underground parking spaces will be constructed to grant tens of thousands of daily visitors easy access to Azizi Boulevard and Azizi Opera.
Azizi Developments’ Sales Gallery can be visited on the 13th floor of the Conrad Hotel on Sheikh Zayed Road.
