A Community Where Creativity Lives

A city district, designed like an object.

d3 is already the epicentre of design, fashion and art in the region. The new masterplan expands it into a fully integrated district that unites creative enterprise, lifestyle living, culture and nature in one cohesive urban environment.

At its core runs the Design Line — a six-kilometre, pedestrian-first spine connecting every area through a continuous, car-free public realm shaped by landscape, culture and design. Waterfront homes face Dubai Creek; studios, galleries and offices thread through the district behind them.

It is developed by Meraas, part of Dubai Holding — the master developer behind Bluewaters, City Walk and Port de La Mer — with the scale and delivery record that a masterplan of this ambition demands.
