Big news! We are excited to announce that we are in the running of a couple of Design Middle East 2024 nominations, in extremely prestigious categories. We are up for:
It was an inspiring night celebrating some of the best in regional hospitality and design. We are thrilled that EDGE was shortlisted in the Hotel Event Space category for our Embassy Suites project with Hilton Worldwide in Business Bay, Dubai.
While we faced some impressive competition and didn’t take home the award, we’re proud of what we’ve achieved and grateful to stand among such talent.
Congratulations to all the winners, and thank you to the sponsors and supporters for making it a memorable evening!
EDGE’s team as Lead Design Consultants (LDC) and Architects has delivered a successful project in one of the world’s busiest hotels, managing a live hotel environment, with extensive structural modifications, new infrastructure, new MEP provisions, a new commercial kitchen and a full fit-out under a stringent deadline and opening date.
Located in the hotel Atlantis the Palm on the iconic Palm Jumeirah, Nobu restaurant has been selected as one of the best restaurants in Dubai by the MICHELIN Guide. Elevated at its new rooftop location, the restaurant has moved to the former Royal Bridge Suite of the hotel Atlantis the Palm.
The Link is part of Masdar City’s plan for sustainable urban development and aims to connect shared working and living spaces with other community amenities.
1/JBR as viewed from the adjacent Ritz-Carlton Hotel at JBR. Elegant and slender, it has an aspect ratio of 1:12. Completed by DCC, the project’s Main Contractor and designed and supervised to completion by EDGE in February 2020, it stands tall on the JBR Beachfront and is a landmark in Dubai.

Congratulations to the team of EDGE Architects for winning the Residential Project of the Year, 1/JBR, in Construction Weeks Awards 2019. Well done for everyone who made this happen.
Located less than 150 metres from the beach at the prestigious Jumeirah Beach Residence in Dubai, the flagship project sets a new standard for luxury in the Persian Gulf region. The design principles behind the building are guided by two main goals: waterfront views and spatial clarity.
Project Update: The Hilton Garden Inn Hotel and Embassy Suites. EDGE Role on the project: Lead Consultant, Architecture, Interior Design and Construction Supervision.
The Seven Gym has its own identity, and designers have followed only one eternal trend - originality. Reacting with the imagination of the features of the site, EDGE created a clear sense of the place.
Being the oldest rugby club in the United Arab Emirates, the client’s aspiration was to have a clubhouse that would reflect the club’s rich history of over 50 years. The design intent was to give the space a vintage industrial aesthetic using a dark high ceiling, exposed structural elements, painted brick walls and rugged concrete flooring.
It’s no secret that the construction industry is massively male biased. A CIOB article published on November 1, 2017 revealed that women make up only 13% of construction sector workers, while only 2% of workers on-site are female. These are staggering numbers that must be addressed, particularly as the demand for talent to build future cities, and infrastructure, is expected to skyrocket in the coming years.
1/JBR will stand apart from the overwhelming majority of today’s multi-unit buildings. The uniqueness of the scheme comes from the fact that in the lower two thirds of the building, each elevator lobby will be shared by only two neighbours per floor.
EDGE have been commissioned to take on half of the new development’s scope, totaling 1.8 million m2 of gross floor area. This includes 3 hotels, cultural facilities, residential, offices, retail and mixed use.
Edge now has the Revier Hotel, which is the first in Middle East, the Hilton Garden Inn and Holiday Inn Hotel and Residences on its portfolio. All three hotels are located in Business Bay, Dubai.
The luxury flagship project 1/JBR, taking shape on one of the final plots of land in the sought-after Jumeirah Beach Residence (JBR) district, is on track for a timely handover in Q4 2019.
