Al Ghurair Launches The Weave, a New Premium Residential Landmark in Dubai

DUBAI, UAE: Al Ghurair Development, the newly evolved real estate arm of Al Ghurair, has officially launched The Weave, a premium freehold residential project located in Jumeirah Village Circle (JVC). Designed in collaboration with award-winning Australian architect Joe Adsett in his Middle East debut, The Weave introduces a new era of modern living inspired by craftsmanship, cultural heritage, and thoughtful design.

The launch represents the beginning of Al Ghurair Development’s premium residential portfolio — a continuation of the family’s six-decade legacy of shaping Dubai’s urban landscape. The division’s founding purpose, “In pursuit of better,” underpins its mission to create living environments that combine form, function, and long-term value.

A Vision for Dubai’s Next Generation of Living

With its contemporary architecture and design-led philosophy, The Weave embodies the next chapter of Al Ghurair’s evolution. The project integrates exceptional architecture with practical living, blending aesthetics with quality construction. The strong market response, with the first phase sold out shortly after launch — underscores rising demand for homes offering distinctive design and reliable value.

Sultan Al Ghurair, CEO of Al Ghurair Development, said:

“Al Ghurair Development marks a new phase in our family’s history and builds on decades of experience while reflecting how Dubai continues to evolve. Over the years, we have delivered large-scale residential, commercial, and infrastructure projects that have contributed significantly to the city’s growth.

‘The Weave’ is the first development under our premium division, reflecting that direction. Every decision, from collaborating with an international architect to integrating the practicalities of living spaces with aesthetic design, has been guided by our purpose and planned for long-term value. The first release selling out reinforces our belief in the demand for homes that combine careful planning with lasting quality.”

A Growing Residential Pipeline

The Weave is the first in a series of premium projects that Al Ghurair Development plans to unveil. Upcoming developments include a project near Al Barari and The Wilds, with another major launch expected in 2026. Each will reflect the company’s long-term commitment to reliability, functionality, and timeless design.

Since its founding in 1960, Al Ghurair has played a defining role in the UAE’s development, from pioneering the nation’s first shopping mall to contributing to iconic projects such as the Dubai Metro and Burj Khalifa façade glazing. The company’s diversified expertise across real estate, infrastructure, food, and property management continues to inform its approach to modern urban living.

Inspired Design Rooted in Heritage

The architectural concept of The Weave draws inspiration from ‘safafa’, the traditional Emirati art of palm-frond weaving, reinterpreted as a contemporary design language. Sculptural balconies, rhythmic lines, and woven-like façades bring a sense of movement and depth, while spacious interiors maximise natural light, creating a seamless connection between form and function.

Joe Adsett, Director and Architect at Joe Adsett Architects, said:

“The Weave was inspired by the ancient artistry of Middle Eastern weaving, a craft that speaks of connection, continuity, and culture. Our vision was to translate that tradition into architecture, creating a dialogue between heritage and modernity. Every curve and pattern reflects the rhythm of woven fabric, while the spaces within are shaped by light, texture, and balance.”

Elevated Amenities and Contemporary Comfort

Inside, The Weave offers one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments ranging from approximately 700 to 1,800 sq ft, designed to evoke calm and comfort. Residents will enjoy a curated mix of lifestyle and wellness amenities, including a rooftop club, infinity pool, jacuzzis, yoga and fitness studios, ice bath, steam and sauna rooms, and a private cinema. Social and leisure spaces such as barbecue areas, dining zones, and a co-working lounge add to the sense of community.

Located in Jumeirah Village Circle, the project offers easy access to Circle Mall, Dubai Hills Mall, Dubai Autodrome, and key commercial and entertainment hubs such as Dubai Media City and Dubai Internet City.

Continuing a Legacy of Innovation

John Iossifidis, Group CEO of Al Ghurair, said:

“The launch of Al Ghurair Development and The Weave is a natural progression in our company’s growth. It builds on our long-standing role in delivering projects that support Dubai’s economic and social development. Through this division, we extend our experience in real estate to create communities built on reliability, longevity, and value.”

A dedicated sales centre at Mashreq HQ Tower in Downtown Dubai is now open for clients and partners to experience Al Ghurair Development’s residential vision and preview The Weave, which is scheduled for completion in 2028.
