Iconic Rixos Residences by Aedas and XBD Collective Redefines Dubai's Skyline with Opulent Urban Living

XBD Collective as Interior Designer

In the heart of Dubai's skyline, a new standard of elegance emerges with the launch of Rixos Financial Centre Road Dubai Residences, a grandiose 84-floor residential high-rise conceived by Aedas. The impressive Rixos Residences represent the world's inaugural standalone Rixos branded residential project, which, along with XBD Collective's sumptuous interior designs, delivers an unparalleled fusion of architecture and design excellence in one of the world’s most dynamic cities. Rixos Hotels and Residences, part of Ennismore, a global lifestyle and leisure hospitality company, adds further value and recognition to the project.

The tower, a new addition to the luxury residential scene in Dubai, holds the distinction of being the city's second tallest residential structure after the iconic Burj Khalifa. It captivates with its 260 assorted living spaces, ranging from one-bedroom units to four-bedroom apartments, and further distinguishes itself with exceptional penthouses, immersing residents in opulence and a suite of world-class amenities across four levels.

Architectural and Design Harmony

XBD Collective and Aedas, two vanguards of their respective fields, have interlaced their expertise to present the Rixos Branded Residences as a beacon of urban luxury. The architectural genius of Aedas celebrates the building's unique position on the last corner plot of Downtown Dubai, employing design strategies that provide each residence with mesmerising views. With a floor-to-floor ceiling height of 3.8 meters, the tower’s occupants can indulge in unobstructed panoramas of the Burj Khalifa and Downtown Dubai or enjoy serene glimpses of the canal.

Reflecting the ethos of the exclusive Rixos brand, Aedas’s Global Design Principal, Ignacio Gomez, expresses commitment to design that not only inspires but profoundly enhances the human experience. The Rixos Residences stand divided into three distinguished zones — the Low, Mid, and High Zones — each offering its own unique perspective of the cityscape and illustrious design elements.

Complementing Aedas’s architectural triumph, XBD Collective, led by Marc Roca Bravo, orchestrates the interior expressions of the Rixos brand's rich Turkish heritage with hints of the local Emirati culture. The design narrative masterfully crafted by the team touches on indulgence, generosity, and well-being — pillars of Turkish hospitality deeply rooted in the project's ethos. XBD's commercial studio, through the strategic use of materials, colors, and textures, infuses each residence with an ambience of timeless elegance that speaks to a discerning, cosmopolitan clientele.
