UH by Ellington

The façade treatment of UH by Ellington is both aesthetically pleasing and functional.  Integrated balconies add layers and depth to the building's exterior while providing private outdoor spaces for residents. Consideration was also given to the play of light throughout the day. Reflective surfaces and strategic angling of materials create a dynamic appearance, with the buildings’ appearance subtly changing as the sun moves. The façade treatment effectively divides each tower into sections, with the use of lighting to highlight feature areas within – most notably amenity levels and the penthouses at the top of each building.   

The project is the result of a holistic design philosophy that aspired to merge elements of nature with clean modernist design. It is a place that broadens horizons with a wealth of facilities, sociable interiors, and expansive views, and is the flag bearing, catalyst development that has sparked the subsequent rejuvenation and expansion of one of Dubai’s most enduringly popular residential neighbourhoods.

The design philosophy aligns with the values of the client, and, with UH by Ellington being the developer’s first foray into super high-rise residential architecture, the focus was on creation of a vibrant and instantly recognisable legacy development, providing an aesthetic, level of luxury, and variety of amenities unlike any other building in the vicinity.
