About Omniyat

Omniyat is a Dubai-based ultra-luxury real estate developer founded in 2005 by Mahdi Amjad. The company focuses on a small number of highly designed, architecturally distinctive projects rather than high-volume development, positioning itself at the very top end of the Dubai property market.

Its best-known building is The Opus by Zaha Hadid in Business Bay, a cube-shaped structure with a dramatic void at its centre, designed by the late architect's studio. The building houses the ME Dubai hotel along with offices and residences, and it is one of the most photographed contemporary buildings in the city.

Omniyat has also partnered with Dorchester Collection, the luxury hotel group, on projects including the Dorchester Collection hotel and residences in Business Bay and residences on Palm Jumeirah. One at Palm Jumeirah, which offers branded residences managed by Dorchester Collection, was one of its key early landmark residential projects.

More recent projects such as Orla on Palm Jumeirah and developments around Marasi Bay in Business Bay continue the company's approach of limited-edition residences with hotel-style services. Omniyat's buyers are typically high-net-worth individuals seeking design-led homes with privacy and service.

The company works with internationally known architects and designers and places heavy emphasis on materials, interiors and amenities. Its marketing frames each project as a collectible piece of architecture, which aligns with the growth of Dubai's super-prime segment.

Dubai has seen a rise in record residential transactions as wealthy buyers relocate to the city, and developers like Omniyat have benefited from that demand. Omniyat's focus sets it apart from mass-market developers, and on Startups UAE it represents the ultra-luxury end of UAE real estate companies.

People searching Omniyat UAE or Omniyat Dubai will find a developer defined by a relatively small portfolio of high-profile, design-driven buildings, with The Opus and its Dorchester Collection partnership as its signature work.
