Dubai’s leading ultra-luxury developer, OMNIYAT, celebrates its 20th anniversary this year. The milestone is being commemorated with a special campaign and a message from Founder and Executive Chairman Mahdi Amjad, reflecting on OMNIYAT’s remarkable journey from an ambitious concept in 2005 to a defining force in Dubai’s architectural story. The celebrations will culminate in a grand commemorative event in January 2026.
“This milestone is one of pride and humility,” said Mahdi Amjad. “It encapsulates twenty years of life achievements that brought us here. Over these two decades, we have transformed the industry, the city, and the people we’ve served, and I am humbled by the opportunity to have touched so many lives in such a unique way. This moment is both a reflection and a renewal, a consolidation of energy that drives us toward new possibilities in a city where the impossible naturally becomes possible.”
From its inception, OMNIYAT has been synonymous with creativity and craftsmanship, delivering some of Dubai’s most iconic landmarks. Among its celebrated developments are The Opus by OMNIYAT, One at Palm Jumeirah, and The Lana, Dorchester Collection, Dubai. Each project showcases the brand’s distinctive fusion of art, architecture, and hospitality, an approach that has helped shape Dubai’s evolution into a global hub of luxury and innovation.
The company’s achievements over the past two decades are nothing short of extraordinary. OMNIYAT has set records in sales value, particularly with its penthouses at One at Palm Jumeirah and The Lana, Dorchester Collection, Dubai. In 2025, it raised over USD 900 million through two Sukuk issuances and became Dubai’s market leader in the USD 10 million-plus segment of the ultra-luxury real estate market during the first half of the year.
“From the very beginning, our ambition was to contribute to Dubai’s extraordinary vision to create places that reflect its spirit of innovation and its commitment to elevating the human experience,” Amjad continued. “We saw it as a responsibility to inspire; to design spaces that bring families together, foster wellness, and empower people to rise to their full potential. We asked ourselves how architecture itself could become a source of inspiration, not only for those who live and work within our spaces, but even for those who simply pass by. That belief has guided every decision we’ve made for the past two decades.”
As OMNIYAT looks to the future, its 20th anniversary marks the dawn of a bold new era defined by expansion and creativity. Central to this next chapter is Marasi Bay, an ultra-luxury waterfront destination set to blend residential, hospitality, wellness, and lifestyle experiences into one harmonised ecosystem of elevated living.
The company is also preparing to unveil its next architectural masterpiece, AVA at Palm Jumeirah, which features a striking sky palace crowned by a private 360-degree swimming pool. The landmark development is scheduled for handover in the second quarter of 2026.
Over the past twenty years, OMNIYAT has not only shaped Dubai’s ultra-luxury real estate market but also set global standards for excellence in design and craftsmanship. Remaining true to its founding philosophy, The Art of Elevation, the developer continues to create spaces that transcend functionality – transforming architecture into timeless works of art.
