Atélis at d3

Atélis at d3 is a residential development by Meraas located in Dubai Design District along the Dubai Canal waterfront. It was designed by SOM, a globally recognised architecture studio, and offers 1–4BR apartments, Sky Villas, and 5BR penthouses. Unit sizes range from 749 to 7,277 sq. ft.

Residences at Atélis at d3 start from AED 2,100,000 for a 1-bedroom apartment. Sky Villas and 5-bedroom penthouses are larger, premium-tier units priced higher based on floor and view. The range covers both investor entry points and ultra-luxury end-user purchases.

The payment plan is structured at 75/25 — buyers pay 75% during construction and 25% on handover. The schedule starts with 20% on booking, followed by staged payments in October 2025, February 2026, July 2026, December 2026, May 2027, and September 2027, with the final 25% due at handover in August 2029.

Meraas has set the handover for Atélis at d3 in Q3 2029, with August 2029 as the specific target month. This gives buyers approximately four years from launch to plan finances or prepare for occupancy. The structured payment schedule aligns with construction milestones throughout that period.

Atélis at d3 offers 1BR, 2BR, 2BR+maid, 3BR, and 4BR apartments, as well as exclusive Sky Villas and 5BR penthouses. All residences feature curved balconies, open-plan layouts, and walk-in closets, while Sky Villas and penthouses include private terraces with panoramic canal and skyline views.

The project is in Dubai Design District (d3), a waterfront creative community on the Dubai Canal. It sits approximately 10 minutes by car from Downtown Dubai, Burj Khalifa, and DIFC. Residents have direct access to d3's waterfront promenade, retail, restaurants, and cultural spaces within the district itself.

The amenity offering includes an infinity pool with skyline views, a cascading swimming pool, kids' pool, poolside suites, sun terraces, outdoor co-working spaces, residents' lounges, an entertainment room, social lounges, a children's learning area, an indoor kids club, a fully equipped gym, wellness gardens, and meditative zones. The design focuses on blending leisure, wellness, and community within the building.

Dubai Design District is one of Dubai's fastest-growing mixed-use addresses, attracting creative businesses, luxury retail, and cultural institutions, which drives sustained rental demand. The combination of a waterfront location, SOM architecture, Meraas branding, and the 75/25 payment plan makes it competitive for both capital appreciation and premium long-term rentals. Starting at AED 2.1M with a Q3 2029 handover, buyers have time to build equity through the construction period.
