Placemaking and destination brands help define cities, elevate regions and create purpose to places. We have worked with every partner across every component to build and bring to life strong identities for places that connect heart and mind, attracting both people and investment.
Real estate is crucial to placemaking and destination branding. From the Armani Residences at the Burj Khalifa to The Dorchester Collection, Four Seasons or Ritz Carlton, we view luxury branded residences as defining components for experiences that help put a destination on the map.
As destination anchors within a city or region, hospitality and mixed-use establishments drive the economics of a place. So, from hotels and retail destinations, like Great Scotland Yard and The Galleria, to large-scale integrated community developments such as Downtown Dubai, Marina Di Ventimiglia, and New Murabba, we deliver ambitious brands of all shapes and sizes.
We partner with governments and municipalities to create infrastructure frameworks for destination brands to sit within. Whether it’s helping the likes of a police force and a research institution, or assisting with urban regeneration destinations, we collaborate on a range of public and private projects from businesses, to banks, airports, utilities and transport.
Transforming London’s most historic addresses into a modern hospitality icon. Nestled in the heart of Westminster with an illustrious past, this exclusive building holds more stories than could ever be told. So when it came to transforming one of the world’s most historic addresses into a boutique five-star destination, we knew the rebirth had to be extraordinary.
One of the most prestigious icons the world will ever see. Penetrating the sky at a mighty 830m high, the Burj Khalifa is currently the world’s tallest building. Built by Emaar to transform global perceptions of Dubai, this ambitious project established the building as a luxury brand and the region as a world-class destination.
