Arthouse Hotel NYC expands to Dubai with Arthouse Hills Arjan — a AED 550 million landmark and the brand’s largest, most amenity-rich residential development.
Arthouse Hills Arjan is one of the most anticipated new launches in the district, generating strong market visibility and investor confidence for Adaan’s inaugural development. It is the second Arthouse-branded residential development in Dubai, following the success of the first Arthouse residence in Meydan. It brings the iconic design and creative heritage of Arthouse Hotel New York to one of the city’s fastest-growing communities. The tower stands as one of the tallest and most amenity-rich in Arjan, offering a wellness-focused, culturally inspired lifestyle experience.
Blending Manhattan’s creative legacy with a premium, design-driven, and aspirational living philosophy, Arthouse Hills Arjan marks a significant expansion of the Arthouse brand in the UAE. Backed by a trusted network of established industry leaders, the development highlights global brand alignment while focusing on lifestyle, culture, and architectural excellence.

Arthouse Hills Arjan strengthens the brand’s presence in the UAE while positioning Arjan as a maturing micro-market attractive to both end-users and investors. Reinforcing Dubai’s status as a hub for design-led, wellness-focused residential offerings, the development stands out for its deep amenity integration, wellness-driven design, and commitment to design-led living.

Abi, this was such a beautifully articulated piece.
What stood out most is how effortlessly you wove New York’s creative charm into Dubai’s vibrant ambition. The project truly feels global, cultured, and aspirational - just the way you framed it.
I especially appreciated the clarity with which you highlighted Omar Gull, the Founder & Chairman of Cledor. Through your writing, his role as the official Brand Partner for Arthouse in the UAE really stands out - a pivotal force connecting the global Arthouse legacy with Dubai’s growing design culture. You captured his depth of experience and vision with such balance and grace.
At the same time, you gave thoughtful space to the entire team behind Arthouse Hills Arjan - Adaan…
