Nakheel Mall Dubai
The aim was to create a premium shopping experience, tourist destination, and entertainment hub all in one. We knew this palm tower was going to become a landmark destination in Dubai. As such, our design needed to reflect it’s significance.
The St. Regis Dubai, The Palm
This luxury hotel on the other hand aimed to bring a taste of New York’s sophisticated glamour to The Palm, while staying connected to local heritage. For us, there was never a doubt in our minds, the perfect way to incorporate local influence was to design the tower reflecting the island on which it sits.
Seamless Integration
The final aspect of the design called for seamless integration between both structures, The St. Regis Tower with Nakheel Mall. This connection between luxury retail and sophisticated-branded living ensures that the experience provides the utmost convenience.
Architectural Vision
“Because of its location on The Palm, we were greatly inspired by the island structure and used the reference of a palm tree for the design of the tower,” says Michael Magill, Managing Director, RSP Dubai.
The palm leaf is integrated into the design balancing the architectural icon with its surrounding. Inspired by the surrounding environment, using the palm leaf the design team perfectly crafted this fluid, graceful structure. The verdant green walls and budding gardens effectively complement the overarching inspiration of the palm tree.
Unparalleled Experiences
As the tower stands at an impressive 52 stories, we had the unique opportunity to create an experience like never before.
At the very top of the tower we had the opportunity to create a 180m viewing deck that provides a truly unique viewing experience of the entire Palm Jumeirah (without jumping out of a plane).
“This is the only place in the world that offers a bird’s-eye view of The Palm Island,” Michael says in relation to The View on the 52nd floor, at Nakheel Mall Palm Jumeriah.
Adding to this exceptional experience is the Aura Sky Pool on level 50, where guests can relax while soaking in panoramic views of Palm Jumeirah and the Dubai Skyline.
