Muraba Veil: Dubai’s Bold New Skyscraper
Dubai is about to welcome a groundbreaking addition to its skyline—Muraba Veil. This 380-metre tower stands out, not for its height, but for its remarkable slenderness. At just 22.5 metres wide, it ranks as one of the narrowest skyscrapers ever built. Its innovative design challenges conventional skyscraper aesthetics, making a bold architectural statement.
Prime Location on Sheikh Zayed Road
Located along Sheikh Zayed Road and the Dubai Canal, Muraba Veil offers an unbeatable location. Designed by RCR Arquitectes, a Pritzker Prize-winning Spanish studio, the 73-storey tower features 131 exclusive apartments. Each residence spans the entire width of the building, offering panoramic views from both sides. Thus, residents can enjoy breathtaking scenes from every angle.
World-Class Amenities
In addition to its stunning architecture, the tower offers a range of luxurious amenities. For instance, residents can relax in the spa, dine at a fine restaurant, visit an art gallery, or enjoy a private cinema. Moreover, a padel court is available for sports enthusiasts. These facilities provide a perfect balance of leisure and entertainment.
Culturally Rooted Design
What truly sets Muraba Veil apart is its sleek stainless steel “veil” that wraps the building. However, the design is also deeply inspired by traditional Arabic architecture. Each apartment surrounds an internal courtyard, creating a peaceful and private environment. This layout reflects the serenity of traditional Arab homes.
A Visionary Collaboration
“This project is more than just a residence. We aimed to create a life-enhancing work of architecture that reflects the UAE’s heritage,” said Ibrahim Al Ghurair, managing director of Muraba. The Muraba Veil marks the fifth collaboration between Muraba and RCR Arquitectes. Their decade-long partnership focuses on integrating architecture with the surrounding environment.
Exclusive Apartments Starting at Dh18 Million
Prices for these exceptional residences begin at Dh18 million. With its blend of modern luxury and cultural elegance, Muraba Veil is set to make a remarkable impact on Dubai’s iconic skyline.
