Atlantis the Royal is a destination where everything has been designed to challenge the boundaries of the imagination. The brief was simple – to create the most memorable building in the city. G.A Group was tasked with creating a seamless and compelling narrative that could resolve numberless planning, design and technical challenges. G.A Group crafted a design narrative centred on the notion of water and water-based moments throughout the property, rather than the ocean, as can be found at Atlantis, The Palm.

The essence of the design narrative for Ariana’s is driven by the city of Kashan in the province of Isfahan Iran. Inspired by the historic villas and their gardens and using the colours of the surrounding environment. Pink roses and their petals harvested for rosewater, historical turquoise found in traditional tiles and cooling water features formed the basis of the colour palette. A new venue for Dubai with the welcoming feel of a majestic home encapsulating the sprit and strength of femininity.
